The $10 Million Tournament

The $10 Million Tournament

  • You have to say that the prize money available in golf is well recognised as being the most profitable in professional sport; but the Tour Championship at East Lake really takes things to the highest level of reward. The tournament winner takes home $1.44 million of the $8 million prize fund. Remember that tournament prize fund gets divided between only 29 players this week – as Dustin Johnson is taking a much speculated ‘break from golf.’

    But on top of these riches, the FedEx Cup is also decided this week at East Lake Golf Club in Atlanta. The winner of that receives a cool $10 million, with the runner-up in the PGA Tour season long competition making do with $5 million. The total prize fund for the Tour Championship qualifiers amounts to $25 million, with another $10 million being divided between the players who finished 31st to 125th in the final FedEx Cup standings. Phenomenal riches.

    Asked yesterday about whether he feels fatigued, Bubba Watson responded “We all get energized when we get to this tournament. We all get energized trying to take home $9million. Kind of energizes you.” His mathematics might be slightly off target but you get the gist.

    East Lake plays as a technical test, if the elements don’t intervene. However thunderstorms threaten across Friday, Saturday and Sunday. It all points towards McIlroy, Fowler, Garcia, Spieth and Simpson fighting it out for glory this week in Atlanta.
