Updated Purse and Prize Money Breakdown for 2023 Phoenix Open Running from February 9-12
The 2023 Phoenix Open is set to make history not only because it will be hosted as the same time as the Super Bowl, but also because it has the largest prize pool on the PGA Tour, a purse of $20 million—a 150% increase from the $8.2 million in the 2022 edition.
This marks the first time the tournament will have an eight-figure prize pool – the leap compared to the previous edition is not exactly small. The winner of the tournament will take home $3.6 million, a significant increase from Scottie Scheffler’s winnings of $1.476 million in 2022.
JefeBet will detail how the remaining prize money will be divided among the remaining competitors right now.
