2025 Tour Championship purse, prize money: Payouts for Tommy Fleetwood, field at FedEx Cup Playoffs
The final 72 holes of the 2025 PGA Tour season decided who took home the grand prize offered by the FedEx Cup Playoffs. While the 2025 Tour Championship again served as the season finale for the top 30 players on the PGA Tour, but the purse and prize funds looked different this season given the PGa Tour's decision to change the playing format for the final tournament.Instead of the near-$83 million purse and $25 million winner's prize that had previously been dished out, the Tour Championship this year offered a $40 million purse with $10 million going to the winner, Tommy Fleetwood. Not bad considering this marked Fleetwood's first career win on the PGA Tour and he had just coughed up the lead at a prior playoff event two weeks earlier.The rest of the FedEx Cup money had been doled […]

A rather large one, as his stepson hugged him and a lot of the […]

Tour Championship: Tommy Fleetwood finally has his moment … and a $10 million check to boot
ATLANTA — You keep kicking at the door long enough, and one day you’re going to break it down. Tommy Fleetwood, 0-for-a-career in PGA Tour events, victim of two heartbreaking Sunday losses in the last two months, finally brought home a victory on Sunday at the Tour Championship. In a year where golf delivered so many feelgood finishes, this was one of the best.But, of course, it had to come with some drama, because nothing ever comes easy for Fleetwood.AdvertisementAdvertisementAdvertisementStanding on the 15th tee, with 200 long yards of water in front of him and Patrick Cantlay three strokes behind him, Fleetwood faced maybe the most consequential hole of his professional life. He’d dunked this shot in the water on Saturday, and another water ball could well have broken him. But on Sunday, the ball held the sloping green, and, […]
