The Masters prize money: How much will players earn at 2023 tournament?

REUTERS

The Masters has confirmed record prize money for the 2023 tournament with the winner earning a mammoth $3.24m (£2.6m).

Scottie Scheffler picked up $2.7m alongside the green jacket last year with Jon Rahm following his lead to triumph in style this year.

There will be more than a million dollars between the winner and the runner-up, which would have added some extra spice had the scores been close down the stretch on Sunday.

There was plenty to play for further down the leaderboard, too. And given the players contended with adverse weather throughout the second and third rounds, all prize money was well earned this week.

Here’s a breakdown of the prize money on offer for the first major of the men’s golf season:

When is The Masters?

The 87th edition of The Masters will be held at Augusta National Golf Club in Augusta, Georgia in the United States over four days from 6 April to 9 April.
