3M Open Prize Money Payout 2024

This year’s 3M Open on the PGA Tour comes between two of the highest-profile events on the calendar. 

Last week, Xander Schauffele's brilliant final round of 65 handed him his second Major title of the year at The Open, while next week, attention turns to the men’s Olympic golf tournament, where eight of the world’s top 10 will be competing.

As a result, the field is far from the strongest on the PGA Tour this season, but there are still some notable names competing for an overall purse of $8.1m, including two of the world’s top 20 and defending champion Lee Hodges.

This year’s payout at TPC Twin Cities in Minnesota is $300,000 more than in 2023, when Hodges cruised to victory over three challengers by seven shots for his maiden PGA Tour title. That earned him $1.404m, but this year’s winner will claim $1.458m.

This week’s runner-up will have the consolation of an $882,900 payday. There are also 500 FedEx Cup points for grabs for the winner as well as world ranking points.

Below is the prize money payout for the 3M Open.

Who Are The Star Names In The 3M Open?

As well as the defending champion Lee Hodges, there are several other notable names in the field for this week’s event.

The highest-ranked player is World No.11 Sahith Theegala. The American claimed his maiden PGA Tour title at last September’s Fortinet Championship, and has followed that up with a string of other impressive performances, including runner-up at the RBC Heritage and T4 at the Genesis Scottish Open.

His challenge at the final Major of the year, The Open at Royal Troon, ended in disappointment, though, where he missed the cut. He’ll be looking to return to his best this week.

Tony Finau, who currently ranks 19th in the world, also plays. He won the 3M Open by three shots in 2022 and will be confident of his seventh PGA Tour title this week.

Other notable names in the field include two players who were in contention for victory at The Open heading into the final round – Sam Burns and Billy Horschel. In the end, Burns finished T31 after a disappointing 80 on Sunday in Scotland, but Horschel finished T2, suggesting he is now fully back on track after a disappointing 2023.

Four-time DP World Tour winner Thriston Lawrence finished T4 at the Major, and his reward is a place in the field for this week’s event, while there’s also a spot for US Ryder Cup captain Keegan Bradley. Rising star Akshay Bhatia, who claimed his maiden PGA Tour win at the Valero Texas Open, also plays. 

Look out for Nick Dunlap, too, who is on the hunt for his third PGA Tour win of the year. Dunlap famously won The American Express while still an amateur, and claimed his first victory on the circuit as a professional at last week’s Barracuda Championship to make PGA Tour history as the first player to win as an amateur and professional in the same year.

Cameron Champ, who won the 3M Open in 2021, also plays, while other familiar names include Cam Davis, Adam Hadwin and Tom Hoge.
