While it’s not a ‘major’ tournament on the PGA Tour, The Players Championship is recognised as golf’s most lucrative event.

Contestants share a prize worth $20 million USD, which equates to approximately $27 million Australian dollars. The 2022 edition of ‘The Players’ is the richest ever, with the purse bumped up another $5 million USD from last year.

As the winner, Cameron Smith claims the biggest chunk of the purse, cashing in a monstrous $3.6 million (approx. $5 million AUD), along with many other PGA Tour exemptions.
