The Total Payout
There is money to be made in Bethesda. The Quicken Loans National boasts a total purse of $7.1 million, with a hefty $1.278 million of that prize going to the eventual winner. That’s excellent news for the field considering the total payout last year amounted to only $6.9 million. To put into perspective the difference in winnings, defending champion Billy Hurley III earned $1.242 million in prize money last year. That’s $36,000 less than the amount the Quicken Loans champion will receive this year. Finishing second in this tournament ain’t bad either with the runner-up receiving a payout of $766,800. On the other end of the leaderboard, the 70th or so golfer to make the cut this week will take home around $14,200.
