Nothing about the 2024 Wyndham Championship has been normal. The first round on Thursday was postponed entirely for the PGA Tour's regular-season finale with the effects of Hurricane Debby coming down over Greensboro, NC and Sedgefield Country Club. They finally took the course on Friday, though, and then started a sprint to play four full rounds over three days.
Ultimately, that set up a wild finish on Sunday for the final round of the Wyndham Championship... in addition to the majority of the third round as well. Veteran Matt Kuchar jumped out to the lead midway through the Sunday action but not without guys like amateur Luke Clanton, Ben Griffin, Max Greyserman, Ryo Hisatsune and many more capable players within striking distance.
As the final tournament in the PGA Tour regular season, a spot in the playoffs and a good position as well is at the forefront of players' minds this week. But there is also prize money to consider. So what does the 2024 Wyndham Championship payout structure and purse look like? We have you covered with the details.
Wyndham Championship purse 2024: Winner's prize money, total purse
The winner of the 2024 Wyndham Championship will take home $1.422 million in prize money this week in Greensboro, along with the crucial 500 FedEx Cup points for the winner this week. The total purse for the tournament this week is only $7.9 million, which is not much in comparison to even other PGA Tour events of this caliber. At the same time, as the final event of the regular season, this is all about players' position in the FedEx Cup standings, which sets up bigger payouts moving forward.
Wyndham Championship payout distribution by finishing position in 2024
Here's a look at the full Wyndham Championship payout distribution for all 67 players who made the cut at Sedgefield. Only 66 players will receive prize money, however, as amateur Luke Clanton -- who, as mentioned, put himself in contention -- will retain his status and not take home any of his share of the purse.

As mentioned, the prize money and purse at the Wyndham Championship is legitimately one of the lowest full-field, non-alternate events on the PGA Tour. However, its placement on the calendar is what makes it more important, especially with the money that could mean. Getting the ever-important FedEx Cup points and trying to vault into the Top 70 or maybe even the Top 50 of the standings is massively important to see the playoffs, which start next week, and for status on the Tour next season.
Even with that, the Top 20 finishers at the Wyndham will all earn a six-figure payout this week, though the only player who will get a seven-figure payday will be the winner. That's still a nice chunk of change if you can finish strong -- in addition to getting those late-push FedEx Cup points as well.
