The 2025 Barracuda Championship purse is set for $4 million, with the winner's share coming in at $720,000 -- not the standard 18 percent payout according to the PGA Tour's prize money distribution chart.

The 2025 Barracuda Championship field is headed by Kurt Kitayama, Max Homa, Ryan Gerard and more of the world's best players.

The 156-player field competes in the fourth additional event of the year, with the event played opposite the Open Championship and co-sanctioned with the DP World Tour.

A cut is made after 36 holes to the top 65 players and ties, based on the modified Stableford scoring system used in this event. 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.
