PGA Championship joins Masters, U.S. Open with $20M-plus purse

The PGA Championship has elevated its total purse to over $20 million, joining the Masters and U.S. Open as major golf tournaments offering that level of prize money. The increase reflects the ongoing escalation of prize funds across professional golf, partly driven by competition from LIV Golf. This milestone marks a significant financial commitment from the PGA of America to its flagship major championship.
