PGA Tour Purse Money 2023
The American Express offers a fairly standard PGA Tour purse for those golfers who are encouraged to participate in the event, and while it’s not a huge amount, anyone would be eager to take home a piece of the pie.
The tournament will distribute a total of $8 million dollars in 2023, which is $400,000 dollars more compared to the previous edition, representing a change of just 5%. Some competitors may have waited a higher amount, considering that the increase between the 2021 and 2022 editions was $900,000.
Of that $8 million, a total of exactly $1,440,000 will go to the winner. To put things in perspective, The American Express 2022 champion, Hudson Swafford, went home with $1,368,000 million.
However, not only the winner of the event will benefit. Here we show you the amount of money to be distributed based on the position of the golfers.
