It’s been an eventful three days in Honolulu, but we’ve finally reached the final round of play at the 2022 Sony Open in Hawaii. Below, find everything you need to know about tournament money, including payout information, winner’s share and more.
2022 Sony Open final round preview
Through three rounds at the 2022 Sony Open, it’s been all Russell Henley, all the time. The 32-year-old pro enters Sunday’s final round holding a two-stroke lead over the remainder of the field after a blistering 15 under start through 36 holes. At the 54-hole mark, Henley sits at 18 under, holding a two-stroke lead over the remainder of the field.
But Henley will have to fight off a charge from a host of low-scoring pros, a group led by reigning Masters champion Hideki Matsuyama. The 2021 green jacket-winner is just two strokes back entering Sunday after a third-round 63 to vault himself up the leaderboard. A win at the Sony Open would be Matsuyama’s third of the last 12 months.
Further back, Kevin Na (-11) looks to continue on Thursday’s on-course (and off-course) momentum. He’ll need a significant comeback on Sunday to re-enter the conversation. Na is joined by the likes of Keith Mitchell and Luke Donald looking for big Sunday performances.
Below, find complete payout information, including winner’s share, for the Sony Open’s $7.5 million purse; you can catch the action from 6-10 p.m. ET on Golf Channel Sunday.
