2023 Tour Championship money: Here’s how much every player made 

Our apologies in advance for this story, Jon Rahm. 

We joke, of course. Still, it was the world No. 3 who eloquently put on Friday that the money involved in this week’s Tour Championship was not on players’ radars, and that the attention given to the purse was a nuisance. 

For clarity, here is the complete exchange:

“Early in your career when you’re first starting out, did you ever think about the money …”

No, Rahm said.

“… in terms of if I miss this or make …”

No, Rahm said again. 

“Do you think …”

Here, he had more than one word.

“It’s one of the things that frustrates me about watching this broadcast. Like, we’re not thinking if we miss a putt how much it’s going to cost us money-wise. No chance. Like, none whatsoever. You’re trying to finish as high as possible. You’re trying to win a tournament. It’s one of my pet peeves when they make this tournament all about money because I think it takes away from it.

“When you win a green jacket, I can tell you right now that any major champion this year might not remember how much money they made. And that’s the beauty about this game and I think that’s kind of how it should be. Obviously I’m saying that being in an extremely privileged position financially. I mean, at that point, from first to second, you’re making a ton of money, so it’s more about winning than the prize itself.”

All good points. But with that …
