The first major championship of the year is finally here. The Masters takes centre-stage this week from Augusta National Golf Club in Augusta, Georgia, with all of the world’s best players battling it out for Masters supremacy and that coveted Green Jacket.
Last year it was world number one Scottie Scheffler who reigned supreme at Augusta, winning his second Masters title and second major. This year, he aims to make it a hat-trick of victories around the hallowed turf of Augusta National.
As one of the biggest events in golf, The Masters prize money is rather lucrative to say the least. The total prize money and purse splits for all 50 players who make the cut at the 2025 Masters is a colossal $20million.

As the world number one and reigning champion, it comes as no surprise to learn that Scheffler is the outright favourite with the best online bookmakers.
The likes of Rory McIlroy, Jon Rahm, Ludvig Aberg, Collin Morikawa and Bryson DeChambeau are next in line with the best UK golf betting sites behind the back-to-back champion Scheffler.

Whoever goes on to lift the trophy come Sunday will be in for a bumper payday and large share of The Masters prize money pot for the 2025 tournament.
Whoever clinches victory come Sunday will leave Augusta National with an extra $3.6million in the bank, with the runner-up also pocketing a tidy $2,160,000.
This $20m purse is actually smaller than some of the inflated prize pots on the PGA Tour at some of the elevated events. That being said, it is still a lot of money and holds far more prestige winning at Augusta than any other course in the world.
