The Masters prize money: How much will players earn at Augusta in 2025?

Rory McIlroy takes a two-shot lead into the final round of the Masters as he looks to hold off Bryson DeChambeau at Augusta National.

Scottie Scheffler won his first green jacket in 2022 and triumphed again last year to solidify his status as World No 1, though looks out of the running this year. The American was bidding to become just the fourth player to win back-to-back, and the first since Tiger Woods in 2002, but sits some way back from leader McIlroy.

The Northern Irishman goes again in his bid to become only the fifth golfer to secure a career grand slam following an excellent start to the season that included victory at the Players Championship.
