There are few venues better suited for a Sunday afternoon showdown than Las Vegas, Nev., the host city for this year’s CJ Cup. On Sunday, a loaded leaderboard looks to push their chips to the center of the table in the casino capital of the United States with the potential for a big payout. Below is the purse for the 2020 CJ Cup, including payout information and winner’s share at Shadow Creek.
CJ Cup final round preview
A loaded leaderboard features an unfamiliar name at the very top. PGA Tour journeyman Russell Henley leads heading into Sunday at the CJ Cup. Henley, who hasn’t won since the 2017 Houston Open, is looking for just his fourth PGA Tour victory on Sunday. Through 54 holes, he holds a three-stroke lead at 15 under par for the week, but he’ll have to fend off a group of bonafide PGA Tour stars to grab victory at Shadow Creek.
How Rory McIlroy struggles to go from the range to the course (like you!)
Xander Schauffele enters the day tied for second at 12 under for the week. Schauffele, who is experimenting with Callaway’s brand-new X Forged CB irons in his bag, owns the low score of the week with his Friday 64…and one of the high scores of the week with his Saturday 74. Still, at only three strokes back heading into the final round, the 26-year-old Schauffele is a good bet to make a late push on Henley atop the leaderboard.
Behind Schauffele, a quartette of major champions are well within striking distance. Justin Thomas (-10), Jason Day (-10), Collin Morikawa (-9) and Rory McIlroy (-8) all enter the Sunday a hot streak away from the lead, while others like Jon Rahm, Rickie Fowler and Brooks Koepka sit inside the top 20.
Below is the payout information for the CJ Cup’s $9.75 million purse; you can catch the action on Sunday starting at 5:00 p.m. ET on Golf Channel.
