The 2021 WGC-FedEx St. Jude Invitational purse is set for $10.5 million, with the winner's share coming in at $1,820,000 -- less than the standard 18 percent payout according to the PGA Tour's prize money distribution chart.
The WGC-FedEx St. Jude Invitational field is headed by Rory McIlroy, Dustin Johnson, Justin Thomas and 48 of the world top 50.
The 66-player field is smaller than the full-field PGA Tour event, as the WGC-FedEx St. Jude Invitational has a limited field.
A cut is not made after 36 holes to the top 65 players and ties for the final two rounds of the tournament. All players who hit at least one shot in the tournament will earn money, but official money is only given to players who complete four rounds.
This is a PGA Tour-sanctioned event and the start of the Florida Swing. The winner gets 550 FedEx Cup points and 74 Official World Golf Ranking points.
The event is played this year at TPC Southwind in Memphis, Tenn.
What else is on the line: FedEx Cup points, OWGR points, exemptions
Beyond money, there are important points, perks and benefits on the line for the field -- in particular, the tournament winner.
The winner of this event will get 550 FedEx Cup points, with World Golf Championships events offering a bonus on top of the normal 500 points to the winner.
The winner gets 74 Official World Golf Ranking points, with the points available based on field strength. T
Winning comes with other big benefits, including a three-plus season exemption on the PGA Tour, as well berths into the Masters, the Sentry Tournament of Champions, The Players Championship and the PGA Championship.
