Rory Mcilroy,Augusta National Inc.,The Players Championship

Jon Rahm won £2.5 million when he secured his first Masters title last year, and the prize purse will remain the same at Augusta as Scottie Scheffler is the clear favourite

The winner of the 2024 edition of the Masters will be crowned on Sunday , and will take home a lucrative purse alongside the prestigious green jacket.

The prize money on offer is still enormous, although due to the riches on offer in LIV Golf it may not entice some players the way it used to. But due to LIV's decision to withdraw their appeal after being snubbed by the OWGR, only 13 players earned the right to compete from the Saudi-backed tour with many missing out due to not qualifying.

His emotions came through two years ago, as Scheffler broke down in tears at Augusta when beating Rory McIlroy by three strokes and was greeted by his wife on the course. It wasn't the same story in 2023, although he still finished tied-tenth after a solid showing.
