The final major championship of 2025 will be decided, as The Open Championship at Royal Portrush concludes on Sunday, July 20. World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler starts the day with a commanding lead, but the course has held plenty of surprises and storyline shifts throughout the week. Will there be extra drama in store on Sunday before anyone lifts the Claret Jug?
The R&A, which organizes and oversees The Open each year, announced that the prize pool will be the same as last year’s record-setting purse. The total purse is $17 million, with the winner claiming $3.1 million.
Here’s how the top-25 finishers will be paid on Sunday, with ties evenly dividing the total purse among the included positions. For example, a four-way tie for fourth would result in the total purse for fourth, fifth, sixth, and seventh evenly divided between the four players.
