Masters 2020 purse, payout breakdown: How much prize money does the winner make? image

The final golf major of the season — and its second-most lucrative — takes place this week after a months-long delay.

The 2020 Masters Tournament features not only the second-largest purse among golf's four majors, but also the second-highest winner's share. Tiger Woods, who won this tournament in 2019, will look to get his hands on the first-place prize money again this season. He won the 2019 Masters with a score of 13-under 275; can he pull off another win and earn his sixth green jacket?

Other golfers who will look to challenge Tiger for the title include 2020 FedEx Cup winner Dustin Johnson, Patrick Reed (winner of the 2018 Masters), Brooks Koepka, Bryson DeChambeau and more.

The tough course will result in a massive payout, of course: Alex Noren, Emiliano Grillo, Bernhard Langer and J.B. Holmes — who finished tied for the worst scores after the weekend cut in 2019 — took home $25,415 for their trouble. WIth that, here is the full breakdown of the 2020 Masters Tournament purse, including winner's share and how it compares to previous years and majors.

How much money does the winner get?

The winner of this week's Masters will take home $2.07 million, the same amount Tiger took home last year.
