There’s a unique tournament on the FedEx Cup Fall section of the PGA Tour this week, with the only trip to Japan in the season for the Zozo Championship at Narashino Country Club.
Unlike other FedEx Cup Fall events, the field is limited to 78 players, while there is not a cut at the tournament, meaning everyone will receive prize money.
The field is also stronger than we have seen so far in this phase of the season because eligibility is restricted to criteria including the top 60 in the current FedEx Cup standings.
Last year, Collin Morikawa added a significant high note to what had been a disappointing season by his standards with victory, which earned him prize money of $1.53m from the overall purse of $8.5m. There is an identical sum on offer this year, which is over double the money available in the next most lucrative men’s elite golf event this week, the DP World Tour’s Genesis Championship.
The winner will receive the same amount as Morikawa in 2023, while the runner-up will claim $918,000. Meanwhile, even the player finishing 78th in last on the leaderboard is in line for a payout of $13,600.
Below is the prize money payout for the Zozo Championship.
