Masters 2021 Live Stream: How Much Money & Rewards will the Winner Get?
The Masters is one of the biggest golf tournaments, and the reward is massive. Since the start, the prize pool is getting larger every two or three years. And this year the Winner will also pack a big amount in the pocket.
Golf is considered as the ‘Rich Man’s Sport‘. It doesn’t mean you have to be rich to play golf, but due to the high cost of instruments and courses, mostly rich people play this game. So, what the term suggests, the prize money also reflects that.
Total Prize Money of The Masters 2021
This year the total prize money is set to a total of $11.5 million. In 2018 the amount was $11 million, then last year it increased by $500k. This year the sum remains the same as last year.
No, the champion will not get all the money. It is the total amount and will be distributed among the Winner, runner-up, and other performers.
However, the players who will earn a spot on the weekend tee sheet will have a higher payout than last year because the money will be distributed among 60 players, which is 5 less than last year’s.
The Winner of The Masters 2021 will get a check of $2.07 million. That’s a heavy sum of money. And the runner up will also get a good amount of money, a $1.24 million check.
