RSM Classic 2024 Purse: $7.6m Prize Fund As PGA Tour Season Concludes
The RSM Classic returns to Sea Island Golf Club in Georgia as the final PGA Tour event of the 2024 season. This year's tournament features a $7.6 million purse, with the winner taking home $1.368 million and the runner-up earning $828,400.
The event holds particular significance as it determines the final PGA Tour card standings for 2025. Players need to finish in the top 125 of the FedEx Cup standings to secure full playing privileges, while those finishing 126-150 receive conditional status.
