Bryson DeChambeau has just won the most lucrative US Open in history.

Despite being two shots back with five holes to play, the American held his nerve to grind out a second triumph in the championship and claim a huge winner’s prize.

Pinehurst set the stage for another demanding test and crowned the Crushers GC as the winner of the 124th US Open.

With a Jack Nicklaus medal and the prestigious trophy secured, DeChambeau leaves North Carolina $4.3 million richer.

That’s because Mike Whan – USGA CEO – confirmed that all its sanctioned majors would award champions with 20% of the cut.

So, as the official prize purse for the 2024 US Open was confirmed at $21.5 million, the winner will receive an all-time high pay cheque.

Meanwhile, Rory McIlroy walked away with just north of $2 million after another agonising near miss, as his wait to end the major drought rumbles on.

Here’s the full payout from Pinehurst and the 2024 US Open…
