Corey Conners, maybe sometime around 2015, would have clicked on a story headlined “2025 RBC Heritage money: Here’s how much every player made.” As a newly turned pro, he was interested.
“Yeah, I would say my first year,” he said, “I was always curious about the check I was going to make.”
Since then?
Not so much. It made for a notable conversation ahead of this week’s RBC Heritage, and it started when a reporter asked Conners if he cares about money.
Conners said not really.
“Regardless of the purse, I’m going to be here,” he said. “I love this golf course, love this event. It’s basically the case everywhere I tee it up. It’s just kind of a nice bonus. I feel fortunate, but it doesn’t — yeah, the amount that I make doesn’t change who I am or really my day-to-day life much.”
A reporter then asked if the prize money was shrunk, would that change Conners’ outlook as a pro.
“I don’t think it really would, no,” he said. “If the purse here was half of what it is, I would still be just as amped up and just as excited to be here and play. It’s still a lot of money. If they started shrinking a lot of the purses, I think my mind would be concerned with the finances of the Tour as a whole, but I know things are in a good spot. The golf is in a great spot and the Tour is on a good trajectory.
“But the purse is not a big thing on my mind or something that I’m worried about.”
With that, here is the complete payout breakdown for this week’s RBC Heritage, played at Harbour Town Golf Links. The total purse is $20 million.
