Davis Thompson took home the lion’s share of last year’s bounty, securing a $1.44m payday for his four-stroke victory ahead of Luke Clanton, Pan Cheng-tsung, and Michael Thorbjornsen.



In addition to the healthy pay day, the winner at TPC Deere Run will receive the standard perks of 500 FedEx Cup points and a two-year PGA Tour exemption.
