The WGC-FedEx St. Jude Invitational is not as prestigious nor as lucrative as the PGA Tour event prior to it – the 2019 British Open – which shelled out a total of $10.75 million in total prizes However, that doesn’t mean the purse at the upcoming tournament at TPC Southwind in Memphis is something to scoff at. In fact, it’s a hefty one, with the total purse getting a boost worth $250,000. That means from last year’s total purse of $10 million, it’s now at a dizzying mark of $10.25 million. Not too shabby.
In 2018, Dustin Johnson took home the top prize worth $1.188 million. If he would’ve won the tournament this year, he would stand to pocket a cool sum of $1.8.45 million, thanks to the increase in the purse. The complete breakdown of the payout at the 2019 FedEx St. Jude Classic is very much likely going to be revealed once the tournament is over and done, but the relatively slim adjustment in the total purse should mean that the difference between the corresponding prizes for last year’s participants and to this year’s players isn’t that much.
For the meantime, we’ll be putting below last year’s payout breakdown for the 2018 FedEx St. Jude Classic.
