2023 PGA Championship prize money purse Payouts for Brooks
The stakes beyond the trophies thesmelves have never been higher in major championship golf

Plenty was up for grabs at the 2023 PGA Championship beyond the Wanamaker Trophy awarded to Brooks Koepka, winner of this year's tournament. The PGA of America announced Saturday that the purse for its signature event totaled $17.5 million, marking a new tournament high and the second-largest prize fund ever awarded to players at a major championship.

This year's PGA Championship purse was a $2.5 million increase from the $15 million handed out in 2022. Koepka will take home $3.15 million, signifying the largest year-over-year increase in tournament history. A solo runner-up would have claimed $1.89 million, though a birdie at the 18th for Viktor Hovland tied him with Scottie Scheffler with the golfers instead receiving $1.54 million each.

The huge payouts trickle down through the field  as everyone who at least made the weekend will not be left empty handed. Beyond the top three each bringing home seven figures, golfers who finished inside the top 20 rake in $200,000 or more, and the top 32 golfers each earned at least six-figure paydays.

Let's take a look at how the payouts for the 2023 PGA Championship will be divided among the top 71 players at Oak Hill Country Club.
