Hero Open Purse, Prize Money And Field 2022

After the 150th Open at St Andrews earlier in the month, top-level golf returns to the town on the Torrance Course at Fairmont St Andrews.

As its name suggests, the Torrance Course, which opened in 2000, was designed by Sam Torrance. There, players will be treated to wide fairways, stunning vistas out to sea and, in the case of the par 3 11th, a view of St Andrews in the distance.

Last year, Scot Grant Forrest claimed his maiden European Cup title following a one-shot victory over Englishman James Morrison.  Both players return this week as they pursue the first prize of €291,660 from the €1,750,000 purse. Another Scot, Richie Ramsay, claimed his first DP World Tour title in over seven years with his one-shot victory in last week’s Cazoo Classic. That win saw him leap 154 places in the Official Golf World Ranking to World No.175 and he’ll be hoping to make it two in a row this week.

Adrian Otaegui, who played in the first two LIV Golf Invitational Series tournaments, returns to the DP World tour after being sidelined following the arrival of bigger names to the Saudi-backed Series. There are others who competed in the first of those tournaments who are taking part this week, too. Oliver Fisher, JC Ritchie and Oliver Bekker all teed it up at London’s Centurion Club last month, and appear this week. Local star Laird Shepherd, who played in this year’s Masters and US Open thanks to his 2021 British Amateur Championship win, also appears.

As well as the prize money on offer, there are also other incentives in the form of 24 Official World Golf Ranking points for the winner and 460 Race to Dubai points.

Below is a full breakdown of the prize money and field for the 2022 Hero Open.
