PINEHURST, N.C. - This year’s U.S. Open purse is unlikely to jump dramatically from last year’s figure of $12.5 million, U.S. Golf Association CEO Mike Davis has said.

Davis said 100% of the non-profit USGA’s revenue is invested back into the game and the Open’s profitability allows it to provide funds for a myriad of programs that benefit the game. The four men’s majors — Masters, PGA Championship, U.S. Open and British Open – generally raise their purses incrementally to keep pace with the PGA Tour’s flagship event, the Players Championship, which next week will offer a record purse of $15 million.
