The 2026 Korn Ferry Tour Championship purse is set for $1,500,000, with the winner's share coming in at $270,000 -- the standard 18 percent payout according to the Korn Ferry Tour's prize money distribution chart.

The Korn Ferry Tour Championship field is headed by the likes of Ian Holt, Ross Steelman, Blades Brown and more.

The event is played this year at the Federal Club in Glen Allen, Virginia. The 59-player field does not face a cut this week, as this is the season-ending event on the schedule reserved for the top 60 players in the standings.

This event runs from Thursday through Sunday and offers 600 Korn Ferry Tour points to the winner.

What else is on the line: Korn Ferry Tour points, OWGR points, exemptions

Beyond money, there are important points, perks and benefits on the line for the field -- in particular, the tournament winner.

This is the final event of the year on the Korn Ferry Tour, with a winner earning 600 Korn Ferry Tour points.

The winner of the Korn Ferry Tour Championship will also earn approximately 12.3 Official World Golf Ranking points, boosting their world ranking.
