How much prize money does the winner get at the 2024 Players Championship at TPC Sawgrass?

Held at the iconic TPC Sawgrass in Ponte Vedra Beach, Florida, this prestigious tournament promises high stakes, fierce comPetition, and a chance for Golfers to etch their names in History.

The inaugural Players Championship unfolded at TPC Sawgrass in 1982, leaving players wide-eyed with wonder. The original course design garnered mixed reactions, with some critics voicing their skepticism. Notably, several top players of the day, including legends like Jack Nicklaus and Arnold Palmer, failed to make the cut—an unexpected twist that added to the tournament’s intrigue.

But how much money does the winner of the Players Championship earn?

The champion of the 2024 Players Championship will walk away with a record-breaking prize money of $4.5 million.

Let’s break down the top payouts for the players who make the cut:

World No. 1 Bonus

Should the world’s top-ranked Golfer come out as the champion, their payday will be even more substantial. If the No. 1 player wins, they’ll have earned a total of $8.5 million for just 14 days of work. Scottie Scheffler’s $4 million winner’s check from the Arnold Palmer Invitational last week adds to this impressive figure.
