The 2023 Masters purse set all kinds of records for the event. And don’t kid yourself, if the tourney wanted to pay its winner $5M to go along with a new green blazer and a killer trophy (replica of the clubhouse), it could easily cut that check.
With his momentous victory, Jon Rahm took home $3.24M, $750k less than Danny Lee won earlier this month when he won LIV Tucson. Let that sink in.
The best golfers (entertainers) in the world put on a show this week, and deserve every penny they deposited into their accounts and spent on cervezas for their private jet flight home.
What about the breakout star from A&M Sam Bennett? Because he earned his spot in the Masters as an amateur, he doesn’t get to bank any of the $261k he would have won had he played as a pro. That’s a tough pill to swallow. We’re guessing down the road he’ll have plenty of opportunities to win that amount and more when he makes it onto the tour. He’s a helluva player with a bright future.
