Kurt Kitayama wins 3M Open: How much prize money did he get?

Kitayama started the final day in third place, overcoming Sam Stevens. 

Thorbjørn Olesen held at least a share of the lead after the second and third rounds, but stumbled in the final round, dropping 13 spots to finish in a tie for 14th. Akshay Bhatia also entered Sunday with a share of the lead after the first three rounds but finished tied for 25th.

The major drop in the leaderboard for players such a Olesen and Bhatia also means they missed out on a significantly larger payout.

While the winner does take home the top prize, every player manages to go home with some money in their pocket. Here’s a breakdown of how the 3M Open purse in 2025 will be divided up:
