PAYDAY! 2024 U.S. Open at Pinehurst No. 2 Prize Money Payouts

The purse payout for the 2024 US Open was the 2nd largest for a standalone event of all time. Bryson pocketed a whopping $4.3M for besting Rory, who finished one stroke back. Missing the shorties on 16 and 18 likely cost Rory a cool $2M, who flew home with his “team” heavy-hearted in his custom private jet. The top four finishers all banked at least a cool million greenbacks. Tony Finau and Patrick Cantlay finished T-3 and each won $1.23M, which is roughly the same amount a tour player takes home for winning a non-Signature or major event. It pays to be great at golf.

Key Takeaways:

  1. Round 4 played the easiest of the four rounds at Pinehurst with the player average coming in just under 2-over par for the day (71.81). Like Finau who finished ahead of him, Russell Henley beat the average score Sunday by 5 shots to finish T-7, banking $639k. Had he shot the day’s average, he would have finished T-19 and would have taken home $250k. That’s a nice bump for finishing on fire Sunday.
  2. At one point on Saturday, Swedish sensation Ludvig Aberg was in sole position of 1st place playing like the prodigious boss he is. But he limped home from there, finishing T-12 and made a modest (?!?) $400k. Finishing Top 15 in your first US Open is nothing to be ashamed of, but surely he’s already thought through what could have been – not only how emotionally charged it would have been to lift the winner’s trophy on 18 Sunday evening, but also what it would have felt like to cash a $4.3M check.  The difference between Cha-Ching and Cha-Cha-Cha-Cha-Cha-Cha…
  3. Mad Man Tyrrel Hatton signed for a 7-over 77 on Sunday, the worst score shot by any player who finished T-50 or better. Had he shot even par, he would have made $500k more than the $153k he did. It’s a good thing he jumped to LIV, otherwise he would only be rich.
