This weekend, the Arnold Palmer Invitational took place in Bay Hill, Florida. Going into the last day, Kurt Kitayama led the field at nine-under. As of this writing, Kitayama is still in the lead with Jordan Spieth behind by just a stroke.

Whether it’s Kitayama, Spieth, or another contender near the top of the field, everyone wants to know how much golfers are taking home with the new and improved payout system the PGA Tour rolled out this season.

The purse for this event is $20 million, in line with the average for regular-season PGA Tour events. As an elevated event, it’s tied for the second-highest payout this year, bested only by The Players Championship.
