Updated Purse and Prize Money Breakdown for the U.S. Open Golf Championship, Running from June 14-17 2018

The Total Payout

Just like last year, the total purse for the 2018 U.S. Open is $12 million with winner set to pocket a life-changing amount of $2.16 million. Well, maybe not really that “life-changing” for some of the already-millionaire favorites should any of them win, but still, $2,16 million is not something you’ll just find stuck between the cracks of any living room sofa. Brooks Koepka won the top prize in 2017 in Erin. Will he be lucky enough to take home the biggest slice of the money cake this year?
