Masters prize money: How much does 2025 winner at Augusta National get?

The Masters continues to be held in high regard as one of the premier golf events each year.

Rory McIlroy further solidified his legacy by winning the 2025 Masters to finally achieve a long awaited career Grand Slam. The victory marked his fifth career golf major but his first since 2014.

McIlroy beat Justin Rose in a playoff with a birdie on the 18th hole after the pair ended up tied at 11-under through regulation.

McIlroy also receives a lifetime exemption to play in the Masters each year going forward and a cash prize.

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 Masters purse in 2025 will be divided up:
