2024 Genesis Invitational purse, prize money: Payout for Hideki Matsuyama, golfers from $20 million pool

The field may have been small at the 2024 Genesis Invitational, but the prize money was as significant as ever. The deepest purse of the 2024 PGA Tour season was on the line Sunday at Riviera Country Club with Hideki Matsuyama taking home the $4 million top prize as part of the $20 million signature event purse.

The $4 million winner’s share exceeds the total from the first two signature events of 2024 — The Sentry and the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am — as well as the first-place checks from the Masters, PGA Championship and The Open last season. (Only the 2023 Players Championship’s $4.5 million winner’s check was larger.) It also represents a $400,000 increase from last year’s top prize taken home by Jon Rahm.

The top three players all cleared seven figures with Will Zalatoris and Luke List each taking home $1.8 million. The trio who finished tied for fourth, including 54-hole leader Patrick Cantlay, will bring home $866,666 each. The generous paydays trickle down the board with everyone inside the top 36 receiving a check worth at least $100,000.

Let’s take a look at the payout list or the 2024 Genesis Invitational through the 70 players at Riviera Country Club.
