When Jim Barnes claimed the inaugural PGA Championship title in 1916, he earned a prize money payout of $500 from an overall purse of $2,580. Yes, times have changed. The PGA of America will announce on Saturday how much the 156 players in the 2025 PGA Championship field at Quail Hollow are playing for.

The 2025 PGA champion will receiver $3.42 million, while both second and third place will take home over $1 million. The top 32 on the leaderboard will all receive six-figure pay days, while everyone that made the cut is guaranteed at least $23,420. Last year, Xander Schauffele took home $3.3 million for his win at Valhalla.

Quail Hollow is a staple on the PGA Tour for a reason. Founded by Jimmy Harris in 1959 on pasture land inherited by his mother, Quail Hollow gradually established itself as a place of note in the professional golf community because of its internal efforts to become one.
