Whoever ends up on top of the leaderboard at the 2025 Tour Championship also wins this year’s FedEx Cup. As a result, the Tour Championship purse is appropriately enormous.
On Sunday at East Lake, PGA Tour stars Tommy Fleetwood, Patrick Cantlay, Scottie Scheffler, Keegan Bradley and more will be playing for a whopping total purse of $40 million.
The $100 million FedEx Cup payouts are changing significantly. Here’s how

Interestingly, this year’s Tour Championship purse is much smaller than last year’s purse. The total amount of FedEx Cup bonus money, $100 million, is the same. But that money is dsitributed at three different points under the new system enacted this season.
The first $20 million in bonuses were doled out to the top 10 players in the FedEx Cup standings after the Wyndham Championship. There, Scheffler took home $10 million for finishing the regular season in first.
The next disbursement of nearly $30 million came after the second FedEx Cup Playoffs event, last week’s BMW Championship, where Scheffler picked up another $5 million (in addition to the $3.6 million he took home for winning the BMW). All 30 players who qualified for the Tour Championship got a taste of the second bonus round.
This week, all 30 players will again get paid, with first place earning $10 million. For comparison’s sake, Scheffler earned $25 million for winning last year’s Tour Championship and FedEx Cup. Should he win again this year, his total FedEx Cup bonus money will end up being the same.
