139 PGA Tour players earned more than 1.3 billion won in prize money in the 2022-23 season

In the 2022-23 season, 139 players recorded prize money of more than $1 million (approximately 1.3 billion won) on the PGA Tour.

Golf Digest, an American golf media outlet, said on the 23rd (Korean time), “139 people won more than $1 million on the PGA Tour in the 2022-23 season. “This is an increase of 13 people compared to the previous season.”

Recently, the number of players who received more than $1 million in prize money has steadily increased to 124 in the 2020-21 season, 128 in the 2021-22 season, and 139 in the 2022-23 season.

The reason why the number of players winning such large amounts of prize money has increased is thanks to the PGA's investment. The PGA Tour was aware of the launch of LIV Golf, capitalized by Saudi Arabia, in June last year and expanded the size of the prize money.

The PGA Tour increased the total prize money for eight tournaments in the 2022-23 season from $15 million to $25 million.

Thanks to the increased prize money, 87 players have won more than $2 million in prize money. There was an increase of 23 people from the 64 people in the previous season.

Scotty Scheffler (USA), the PGA money winner, earned $21.01 million (about 27 billion won) in prize money alone, ahead of Taylor Gooch (USA? $15.13 million), who earned the most prize money at Reeve Golf.

However, in terms of prize money per game, Gooch is ahead. Schaeffler participated in 23 competitions in the 2022-23 season and received $910,000 in prize money per competition. On the other hand, Gooch participated in only 13 competitions and earned an average of $1.16 million in prize money per competition.

In addition, it was confirmed that Gooch earned more prize money by winning team prize money in each competition.
