U.S. Open: How much did Wyndham Clark earn with his win at Los Angeles Country Club?
The U.S. Open offered a record $20 million purse in Los Angeles
LOS ANGELES — The U.S. Open brought a record amount of money to Los Angeles Country Club.
The third major championship of the year offered a $20 million purse for this year’s major championship, the first in Los Angeles in 75 years. That marked a $2.5 million increase from last year’s tournament, and the largest purse in tournament history. It also topped the $18 million prize pool offered at the Masters earlier this year.
Wyndham Clark, after starting the day with a share of the lead, held on to take home the U.S. Open on Sunday night. The win marked his first major championship, and his second ever PGA Tour win. Rory McIlroy finished a shot back, falling short again while trying to win his first major championship in nearly a decade.
Here’s how much Clark took home with his win, and how much the rest of the field earned in Los Angeles.
