This week’s Arnold Palmer Invitational is a designated event on the PGA Tour, and you know what that means: a ton of money is up for grabs.
The $20 million purse pays out $3.6 million to the winner, and the top-three spots all get at least $1 million. The runner-up will take home $2.18 million, with third snagging a $1.3 million check. Heck, even fourth place is just under seven figures at $980,000.
It should be an entertaining final round, too. Kurt Kitayama leads at nine under but has never won a PGA Tour event. Viktor Hovland and Scottie Scheffler are both eight under and one off the lead. Tyrrell Hatton is two back, and Rory McIlroy and Harris English are both three back.
Scheffler won this tournament last year and has already defended one of his titles on Tour this season (the WM Phoenix Open). Hatton and McIlroy are also past champions of this event.
