The DP World Tour's flagship event offers a $9 million purse, but how much of that will players at the BMW PGA Championship pocket?
Wentworth West welcomed another elite group of players to the 2024 BMW PGA Championship, where players will compete for a share of the $9 million Rolex Series purse.
The fund’s purse remains the same as it was in 2023 and is the largest purse on the DP World Tour outside of the majors and the season-ending Tour Championship.
Last year, New Zealander Ryan Fox beat British duo Tyrrell Hatton and Aaron Rai by one stroke to claim his third European title and $1.53 million.
Nine of Luke Doanld's Ryder Cup winners in Rome will be in action again at Wentworth – including Rory McIlroy – who was favourite to win a second BMW PGA title after losing to Rasmus Hojgaard at Royal County Down last week.
Here’s how the 2023 prize money will be distributed…
