The 2024 Tour Championship may not be the biggest event on the calendar, but it does boast the largest prize fund in professional golf. With the FedEx Cup Playoffs collectively shelling out $100 million in bonuses, players will vie for their slice of the nearly $83 million prize pool with $25 million going to the eventual winner at East Lake Golf Club.

Hideki Matsuyama and Keegan Bradley each collected $3.6 million for their respective victories over the first two playoff events, but that is just a fraction of what will be hitting the FedEx Cup champion's bank account once the Tour Championship concludes. In fact, all competitors will clear at least a half million dollars for making it to the season's final playoff event with those inside the top 12 all cashing seven-figure paydays and those inside the top five clearing at least $5 million.

The $83 million pool represents an increase compared to last season when $75 million was up for grabs. Viktor Hovland claimed $18 million for his FedEx Cup crown. While that is $7 million less than what the eventual winner will collect this season, it was still more than the $15 million rewarded back in 2019 -- the first year of the staggered start format.

To contextualize the $25 million winner's purse, only one player on the PGA Tour season (Scottie Scheffler, shocker!) has surpassed that money total entering the Tour Championship. The seasons put together by Robert MacIntyre, Billy Horschel, Shane Lowry and Collin Morikawa would roughly add up to this figure.
