US PGA 2021: Full prize money payout

Phil Mickelson has re-written the golf history books by becoming the oldest man ever to win a major championship.

Amongst the 50-year-old’s many rewards for his landmark victory in the US PGA Championship at Kiawah Island is a cheque for $2.16million – the first time in the long and decorated history of the event that the winner has taken home more than $2million. 

The PGA of America put up a record $12million prize fund for the 103rd edition of its flagship tournament, making it the second most lucrative major in golf behind the US Open, not to mention the sport’s third richest event.
