This is it, everyone. There’s only one more round of PGA Tour action before build-up to The Masters can officially start, but we’re certainly not wishing away any time because this year’s Valero Texas Open has been excellent as always.
McIntyre’s third PGA Tour victory is certainly no gimme, however, with more than half a dozen players within striking distance on the final lap.
As a result, the conclusion of the action at TPC San Antonio will definitely be worth tuning in to, and here’s how much they’re playing for in 2026.
Last year’s total prize money reached $9.5 million, and another $300,000 has been tacked on in 2026.

Therefore, whoever follows Brian Harman into the winner’s circle will collect a check for $1.76 million before various factors reduce how much money the winning pro really sees.
Nevertheless, coming out on top is certainly worth it as not only will the champion maintain their PGA Tour playing rights for at least the next two seasons but they will also book the final tee time into the 2026 Masters anywhere in the world.
Meanwhile, the runner-up at TPC San Antonio is set to walk away with just over $1 million while everyone else inside the top-20 should scoop a six-figure payday for the week.
Below is the maximum prize money payout for each position at the 2026 Valero Texas Open based on 65 players making the cut and before ties are taken into account. An updated version can be found here once the tournament has been completed.
