It’s been the foundation of nearly everything written, spoken and otherwise uttered about the LIV Golf Invitational Series. The idea from its inception is that these tournaments would be limited-field, 54-hole, no-cut events but, most importantly, that they would be contested for massive prize money payouts. On Saturday at The Centurion Club outside of London, that will come to fruition for the first time when a winner of the inaugural tournament emerges and is awarded the largest pay day in pro golf history — $4 million.

Overall, the purse for the individual competition in this first event in the Saudi-backed series is $20 million, with the last-place finisher (48th) guaranteed to make $120,000.

Additionally, the three top four-man groups in the team competition will split another $5 million among then, the winning squad divvying up $3 million among the foursome.

Here’s the prize money payout for the field at The Centurion Club.
