Texas Children's Houston Open Payout 2025

It's a big week in Texas as the world's top two players, Scottie Scheffler and Rory McIlroy, headline the Texas Children's Houston Open.

The much-loved, and open-to-the-public, Memorial Park Golf Course hosts the action once again where Stephan Jaeger defends his title.

The German edged out Scheffler, Alejandro Tosti, Tony Finau, Taylor Moore and Thomas Detry to the trophy last year to win $1.638m from the $9.2m total purse.

This year's Houston Open payout has increased to $9.5m, which will see the winner bag $1.71m.

Aside from the Signature Events and The Players Championship, this week's prize fund is the largest of the season so far - bigger than the likes of the WM Phoenix Open ($9.2m) and Farmers Insurance Open ($9.3m). It's up $500,000 on last week's Valspar Championship prize fund, which stood at $8.8m.

The champion will earn 500 FedEx Cup points as well as somewhere between 50-60 Official World Golf Ranking points.

This week's runner-up will take home a seven-figure paycheck, too.
