Who will take home the winner's share of the Memorial Tournament prize money?

Here’s how the Memorial Tournament prize money is set to be awarded at the Jack Nicklaus-hosted PGA Tour Signature event.

World No.1 and defending champion Scottie Scheffler headlines the field again at Muirfield Village, where a limited field of just 72 players compete for the $20 million Signature event purse.

His one-stroke victory over Collin Morikawa earned the Texan a $4 million payday, bumped up by $400,000 from the 2023 cheque won by Viktor Hovland.

The top four finishers this year will all earn a guaranteed $1 million, with even the last-placed pro pocketing a healthy $52,000 for their efforts.



The winner in Dublin, Ohio, is set to receive an elevated 700 FedEx Cup points and all the usual perks, including a two-year PGA Tour exemption.

Here’s a full breakdown of how the purse will be dished out…
