How Much Will The Winner Of 2024 Mexico Open Get From Its $8.1 Million?
The ongoing PGA Tour event has a decent prize money purse of $8.1 million and the winner of the event will receive a $1.458 million paycheck. Apart from that, he will also get 500 FedEx Cup points and 31 points on OWGR. Also, if a player finishes on solo second rank, he will earn $882,900 in prize money.
Other perks of winning the 2024 Mexico Open are two-year exemptions on the Tour. Also, the winner gets invited into the Player Championship, the Masters Tournament, and the PGA Championship. He will also be eligible to play at all the other remaining signature events of this season.
Jake Knapp is leading the table by a huge four-stroke margin. As of now, he is the favorite to win the tournament at Vidanta Vallarta. However, after considering the prospects of the Genesis Invitational last week where Hideki Matsuyama recorded a historic win, anything can happen on Sunday. To know that, we have to wait and watch the ongoing PGA Tour event.
