The Tour Championship feels different from the rest of the FedEx Cup Playoffs, and in some methods, it stands apart that method. The quantity of money at stake– $45 million split between 30 golfers– dwarfs every other reward swimming pool in golf, and while winning that trophy is prestigious, recording the $15 million that comes with it can be life-altering for several golfers in this field.
Last year, in the first model of these playoffs, Rory McIlroy took home the very first $15 million very first prize (it was formerly $10 million). Getting second isnt bad, either, as the runner-up will net $5 million.
Even if you go out and shoot 90 four days in a row, you still take home almost $400,000, which is $195,000 more than the perk you get if you ended up one area out of the Tour Championship by being available in 31st place in the FedEx Cup standings after the BMW Championship recently.
