RBC Heritage Full Prize Money Payout 2026

The PGA Tour's fourth Signature Event of the year has featured a slightly larger field than normal and no cut, giving each pro involved a shot at a huge payout

With Rory McIlroy's second Masters victory now feeling like a distant memory, many of his rivals last week have been attempting to ease the sting of defeat with a win at the RBC Heritage.

Therefore, whoever comes out on top later today will scoop a massive $3.6 million, the same as Justin Thomas a year ago, before plenty of that disappears, thus affecting how much pro golfers really earn from tournaments.

With one round to play, Matt Fitzpatrick had a three-shot advantage over Scottie Scheffler, with both players looking for their second title at the event.

Second and third place at Harbour Town are both lucrative as well, with $2.16 million for finishing runner-up and $1.36 million up for grabs in third.

Plus, because the RBC Heritage is not a player-hosted event, there was not a cut on Friday and every player who completes the four rounds will pick up a pay check for at least $30,000.

From a non-financial point of view, there are also an increased number of FedEx Cup points on offer to the winner (700) as well as almost 70 OWGR earned by the champion.

Below is the maximum prize money breakdown for each position at the RBC Heritage based on 80 players being involved and before ties are taken into account. The full list will be updated once the tournament is completed.
