2025 Masters Purse Soars to Record $21M, Champion Takes Home $4.2M
Alright, golf fans, let’s talk about something that's just as eye-catching as a perfect tee shot on Amen Corner—the money. The 2025 Masters Tournament at Augusta National isn’t just dishing out green jackets this year; it’s also handing out serious green. The prize purse has hit a record high of $21 million , making it one of the most lucrative events in golf history. And the player who walks away with the win? They’ll pocket a massive $4.2 million —the biggest winner’s share ever seen at the Masters.

Now, for some perspective, that’s a $600,000 jump from what Scottie Scheffler earned in 2024 when he claimed his second green jacket. And it’s not just the top dog who’s raking it in. The top four finishers will each earn at least $1 million , which means those final stretch shots on Sunday afternoon come with enormous stakes—not just for the leaderboard, but also for the players’ bank accounts.
It’s not all about the winner either. Every golfer who made the cut is cashing in. The top 50 finishers are guaranteed at least $52,920 , and even those outside that mark will still walk away with descending payouts starting from $51,660 . Missed the cut? No worries—there’s still $25,000 waiting just for showing up and swinging.
And for those gunning for more than just the cash, finishing 12th or better means an automatic invite back to Augusta next year. That position alone nets nearly $483,000 , so yeah—there’s plenty of incentive to grind it out until the final hole.
With legends like Rory McIlroy, Justin Rose, and Bryson DeChambeau in the mix, the competition has been fierce, and the drama is real. Whether it's for glory, money, or that iconic green jacket, Sunday’s final round is going to be a can't-miss showdown. Every putt matters. Every swing is a step toward history—and a healthy payday.
So if you’re tuning in, you’re not just watching golf. You’re witnessing one of the most financially rewarding tournaments in the sport’s history. The 2025 Masters isn’t just making golf history—it’s redefining it.
