The 2025 WM Phoenix Open marks the sixth event of the season on the PGA Tour, with the popular event unfolding from Thursday through Sunday at TPC Scottsdale in Scottsdale, Arizona.
This week's PGA Tour event has a $9.2 million purse, with a 132-player field competing in the tournament. There's a cut after the halfway mark to the top 65 players and ties.
The winner's share of the 2025 WM Phoenix Open prize pool is at $1,656,000, with the second-place finisher taking home $1,002,800 in PGA Tour prize money, provided they finish in solo second place and there no need to split prize money among ties.
The WM Phoenix Open winner takes home 18 percent of the purse to the winner, and how much each PGA Tour player earns is guaranteed down to the last-place professional player.
The WM Phoenix Open field is headed by Scottie Scheffler, Wyndham Clark, Justin Thomas and more.
The tournament starts on Thursday with 132 players, and a cut will be made this week after two rounds to the top 65 players and ties. Every professional player in the field is paid for completing the event. The PGA Tour typically adding money to the purse if more than 65 professionals make the cut to ensure all players are paid.
While money is crucial to a professional golfer's livelihood, they also benefit from FedEx Cup points and Official World Golf Ranking points that can earn them bonus money and entry into future events, like major championships.
The winner of this event will get 500 FedEx Cup points, as will be practice for all standard events in 2025.
The champion also gets a to-be-determined amount of Official World Golf Ranking points -- likely around 56.
Nearly all players who complete four rounds this week will earn both FedEx Cup points and Official World Golf Ranking points.
