It’s not just the green jacket that Dustin Johnson, Rory McIlroy, Jordan Spieth, and the rest of the field at the 2021 Masters Tournament will be chasing this week. Sure, the green jacket would look really nice in their collection, but the event becomes an even bigger one when there’s a total of $11.5 million worth of prizes on the table. That’s more than what New Orleans Pelicans point guard Lonzo Ball is making this season in the NBA. Don’t tell that to LaVar Ball, though, as he might pull all his kids away from basketball and force them to learn how to putt. Kidding aside, expect an electrifying atmosphere down at the Augusta National Golf Club in Augusta, Georgia, as Johnson looks to defend the title he won there in November of 2020. With all that said, let’s now take a look at the breakdown of the purse.
