The 2025 BMW PGA Championship prize money payout is from the $9 million purse, with the 86 professional players who complete four rounds at Wentworth Club in Virginia Water, England, earning DP World Tour prize money and an official-money paycheck this week.
The winner’s share of the BMW PGA Championship prize pool is at $1,530,000, with the second-place finisher taking home $660,000. The BMW PGA Championship prize money payout breakdown shows a payout of 17 percent of the purse to the winner, and how much each DP World Tour player earns is guaranteed down to the last-place professional player.
The BMW PGA Championship field is headed by Rory McIlroy, Adrien Saddier, Alex Noren, Tyrrell Hatton and more.

This tournament started with 144 players, and a cut was made this week after two rounds. Every professional player in the field is paid for completing the event, but how much each player is paid at the 2025 BMW PGA Championship from the correct 2025 BMW PGA Championship full-field payout is based on their finish.
The 36-hole cut was made to the top 65 players and ties, and all qualifying players had an opportunity to move up the leaderboard in the third round. A secondary cut was made after 54 holes to the top 70 and ties.
The 2025 BMW PGA Championship prize money payout is only true after the DP World Tour cut is made, with the DP World Tour adding money to the purse if more than 65 professionals make the cut to ensure all players are paid.
With the DP World Tour cut rule down to the top 65 and ties, players are subject to the DP World Tour’s secondary cut if more than 78 players make the cut. The secondary cut was made in this event.
