2021 The CJ Cup at Summit purse, winner’s share, prize money payout

FOLLOW: iHEART | TUNEIN


The 2021 The CJ Cup at Summit purse is set for $9.75 million, with the winner's share coming in at $1,755,000 -- the standard 18 percent payout according to the PGA Tour's prize money distribution chart.

The The CJ Cup at Summit field is headed by Brooks Koepka, Dustin Johnson, Rory McIlroy and more of the world's best players.

The 78-player field is an invitational event on the PGA Tour schedule, with no Monday qualifiers earning their way into the field.

A cut is not made after 36 holes to the top 65 players and ties for the final two rounds of the tournament. All players who finish four rounds of the tournament will earn money.

The event is played this year at the The Summit Club in Las Vegas, Nev.

This is the fourth PGA Tour-sanctioned event of the 2021-2022 PGA Tour schedule.

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 this event will get 500 FedEx Cup points.

The winner gets 68 Official World Golf Ranking points, with the points available based on field strength.

Winning comes with other big benefits, including a two-plus season exemption on the PGA Tour, as well berths into the 2022 Masters and 2022 PGA Championship, as well next year's Sentry Tournament of Champions.
