How would you spend $3.15 million after winning the U.S. Open? We asked the fans.

The 122nd U.S. Open at The Country Club in Brookline, Massachusetts has a record purse of $17.5 million, the largest in major championship history.

First place will take home $3,150,000, which is nearly a million more than last year’s payout when Jon Rahm took home $2,250,000.

Whether you’re a professional player or a fan outside the ropes, this amount of money can change anyone’s life. We asked fans what they would do if they won the $3,150,000 on Instagram, and their answers varied.

Take a look at some of their colorful answers from quitting their jobs, traveling the world or buying… bananas?
