The 2025 The Genesis Invitational purse is set for $20 million, with the winner's share coming in at $4,000,000 -- not the standard 18 percent payout according to the PGA Tour's prize money distribution chart.

The 2025 The Genesis Invitational field is headed by Scottie Scheffler, Rory McIlroy, Jordan Spieth and more of the world's best players.

The 72-player field competes in the third Signature event of the year, with the event moved temporarily to Torrey Pines' South Course.

A cut is made after 36 holes to the top 50 players and ties and those within 10 shots of the lead at the halfway point. All players who finish four rounds of the tournament will earn money.

The prize-money payout is typically based on exactly 65 players making the cut and finishing the tournament. When more than 65 pros make the cut, the purse is increased to make sure every player is paid.

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 The Genesis Invitational event earns 700 FedEx Cup points, as will be the case for Signature events. The winner gets 68.5 Official World Golf Ranking points, with the points available based on field strength.

The champion will enjoy the benefits of winning PGA Tour event, including a two-year exemption on the PGA Tour and an exemption into the Masters, PGA Championship and The Players.
