Masters prize money and tee-times explained as Rory McIlroy prepares to battle Scottie Scheffler for glory
Golf fans from all over the world are currently looking forward to the Masters, with the prestigious tournament set to commence on Thursday.
It will be intriguing to see if Scottie Scheffler can win the famous trophy for the second year on the trot, while other heavyweights such as Rory McIlroy and Bryson DeChambeau are also likely to be in the mix for glory at Augusta.
The winner of the Masters will bank around $3,6million, with the runner-up and third-best star taking home $2,160m and $1.3m respectively.
That’s the same as in 2024, when Scheffler managed to fend off competition from Ludvig Aberg and Tommy Fleetwood to reign supreme.
