COLUMBUS, Ohio — The winner of this year's Memorial Tournament will take home a larger prize than ever before.
Just how much money does the winner of the Memorial Tournament get to take home?
Last year, Viktor Hovland earned not only a trophy and a new title but brought home $3,600,000. That is a nearly $1.5 million increase from 2022 winner Billy Horschel’s earnings.
According to PGA TOUR, this year’s purse amount matches last year’s at $20 million total. Only, the winner of the 2024 tournament will take home 20% of the purse this year, which equals $4 million.
This year's Memorial at Muirfield Village Golf Club in Dublin takes place from June 6 through June 9.
The Memorial has a 36-hole cut to the top 50 players and ties, in addition to any players within 10 strokes of the 36-hole lead, according to PGA TOUR.
The final field for the tournament was announced by officials on Monday.
Seventy-three players will compete for the top spot. Six of those players are past winners of the tournament, one being reigning Masters champion and current World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler. Here's the final field.
