The first PGA Tour full-field event of 2024 is bringing some serious cash to Hawaii. The Sony Open’s total prize pool? A whopping $8.7 million.

This weekend’s champion at Waialae Country Club in Honolulu will take home more than just a trophy – they’ll pocket a cool $1.56 million.

Even finishing second pays big, with the runner-up earning $948,300. Third place isn’t too shabby either at $600,300.

Making the top 10 at the Sony Open means walking away with at least $237,075. That’s not bad for four days of work in paradise.

Here’s what the other top finishers can expect:
• 4th place: $426,300
• 5th place: $356,700
• 6th place: $315,375
• 7th place: $293,625
• 8th place: $271,875
• 9th place: $254,475

The money stays pretty solid through the middle of the pack. Even players finishing around 30th place will earn nearly $60,000.

Making the cut is crucial – those who play all four rounds are guaranteed at least $16,791, which goes to the 76th place finisher.

It’s worth noting that these earnings don’t include potential bonuses from sponsors or FedEx Cup points, which can add significantly to a player’s take-home pay.

The tournament wraps up Sunday afternoon, when we’ll find out who claims the biggest share of this impressive purse at one of the PGA Tour’s most scenic venues.
