Okay, so I was curious about how much money the pros were playing for at the Hero World Challenge. I mean, it’s Tiger’s tournament, so you know the payout has gotta be decent, right?
So, I started digging around. First, I hit up the usual spots – the official tournament website, some golf news sites, you know, the typical places. Honestly, it took a little bit of clicking around to actually find the breakdown.
It is not easy to find, I browsed a lot of websites.
Here’s What I Found
I managed to find a reliable source that listed the purse breakdown. I was mainly interested in seeing how much the winner and the last-place finisher would take home. It’s always interesting to see that range, you know?
- First Place I remember I saw somewhere that the winner gets a cool million. That’s some serious cash!
- Last Place: Even the guy who comes in last gets a pretty good payout, if my memory serves me it is about $100,000. Not bad for a week of golf, even if you’re not playing your best!
The first place is $1 million,I remembered that, and the Last Place is $100,000.
So yeah, that’s basically what I did. I just wanted to satisfy my curiosity and figured I’d share what I found. It’s always fun to see how much money is on the line in these big tournaments!
