Yet by joining LIV Golf and making his debut at this week’s LIV Golf Invitational Series Boston, the 29-year-old Aussie could exceed each of those pay days with a victory at The International in Bolton, Massachusetts.
Like the three previous LIV events held since the circuit’s launch in June, the winner of the individual competition will earn $4 million for his victory from an overall purse of $20 million. With only 48 players in the field and no cut, everybody who competes is guaranteed to take home at least $120,000.
Along with the individual event, there is a team competition that pays out $5 million overall. The four-man squad that wins on Sunday divvies up $3 million, with the second-place team splitting $1.5 million and the third-place group earning $500,000.
Here are the prize money payouts for the entire field at The International.
