Matt Fitzpatrick earned £3.6 million from his win at the RBC Heritage on Sunday and SportsLens have rounded up all the earnings from the PGA Tour event.
Fitzpatrick defeated defending champion Jordan Spieth in a nail-biting play-off at Harbour Town Golf Links to claim a second PGA Tour title following victory at the US Open last year.
2022 runner-up Patrick Cantlay narrowly missed out on a three-man play-off, leaving Fitzpatrick and Spieth tied at 17-under-par to battle it out for the £3.6 million winning prize.
Nothing could separate the pair after two holes, but a magnificent nine-iron which landed inches from the pin on 18 left Fitzpatrick a tap-in for birdie to secure the title after Spieth missed a 40-foot putt.
The purse was boosted in 2023 to $20 million from $8 million the previous year, including a jump from $1.44 million to $3.6 million for the winner – slightly more than Jon Rahm earned with recent victory at The Masters.
