2019 Tour Championship money: Purse, winner’s share, prize money payout



The 2019 Tour Championship purse is set for $46 million, with 30 professional players who complete four rounds at East Lake Golf Club in Atlanta, Ga., earning a paycheck this week.

The winner's share of the Tour Championship prize pool is at $15,000,000, with the second-place finisher taking home $5,000,000. This money is considered unofficial as it's part of the FedEx Cup bonus pool. However, the finish order of the Tour Championship determines this payout.

The Tour Championship field is headed by Rory McIlroy, Brooks Koepka, Justin Thomas and more.

With this being a no-cut event, all of the players are allowed to finish the tournament on Sunday and move up the leaderboard in the final round. No players are subject to the PGA Tour's secondary cut in the playoffs.
