2024 PGA Championship payouts, purse: How much did Xander Schauffele earn for his win at Valhalla?

Xander Schauffele, after a historic opening round, beat out Bryson DeChambeau to win his first career major championship on Sunday

At long last, Xander Schauffele now has a major championship.

Schauffele drained a clutch birdie putt at the 18th to beat Bryson DeChambeau on Sunday afternoon at Valhalla Golf Club in Louisville, Kentucky, and win the PGA Championship. It marked the first major championship of Schauffele's career and his eighth career win on the PGA Tour.

Schauffele went wire-to-wire after posting a course-record 62 to kick off the tournament. He also posted the lowest score to par ever at a major championship.

The PGA Championship increased its total purse to a record $18.5 million this year, up $1 million from last year’s tournament at Oak Hill. That left an impressive $3.3 million payday for Schauffele and at least $500,000 for everyone who finished inside the top 10.

While the purse is a record for the tournament, it’s less than the Masters purse and purses for other signature events on the PGA Tour. Scottie Scheffler earned $3.6 million for winning the Masters last month, which had a $20 million purse.
