The Zurich Classic occupies a unique spot on the PGA Tour schedule. It’s the only team event of the year, and that means there are a couple of specifics that make it different to individual medal play.
While the winning team is still entitled to PGA Tour exemptions and FedEx points, there are no world-ranking points awarded at this tournament. Prize money is also slightly more complicated, with the winning team sharing the money generally earmarked for first and second place, the second-place team splitting the money for third and fourth place, and so on.
This week, there’s an $8.9 million purse up for grabs, with $1.268 million going to each player on the winning team. The drop-off to second is pretty steep, with $525,100 for each player on the runner-up team. (Compare that to last week’s Signature Event purse in Hilton Head, where every player in the top 10 make $541,000 or more.)
To clear six figures in New Orleans this week, players will have to finish in the top 11.
Below, you can check out the complete payout breakdown for this week’s Zurich Classic played at TPC Louisiana.
