2019 Memorial Tournament Prize Money

Patrick Cantlay’s victory at Murifield Village was the biggest payday of his career to date as he took home a $1.638 million share of the 2019 Memorial Tournament prize money.

Adam Scott, who finished second, pocketed almost $1 million for his efforts during the week and Martin Kaymer who was a surprise player this week was paid out around $620,000.

Players who made the cut earned a minimum of $17,500 and players who made it into the top 10 pocketed a healthy sum that was over $235,000.

The Memorial Tournament is one of the most prestigious events on the PGA Tour as it is one of few tournaments which is invite only and is run by one of the greatest golfers of all time, Jack Nicklaus.

The other five tournaments to have invitational status are the Masters, Geneis Open (from 2020), Arnold Palmer Invitational, RBC Heritage and the Charles Schwab Challenge.

Here’s a full breakdown of the 2019 Memorial Tournament prize money.

Matthew Beedle

National Club Golfer and National Club Golfer magazine

Matthew has been playing golf since he was around 13 and took up the game at a local nine-hole municipal course with his friends before joining Pontefract & District Golf Club just over the hedge.

Still a member of Pontefract with a handicap of 3, he currently sits on the board of directors to help with digital and marketing initiatives in order to improve membership and visitor income.

Matthew graduated university with a First Class in Sports Journalism from Leeds Trinity University and has been working in the golf industry since graduating.

NCG’s social media & marketing manager, Matthew’s main job role is to increase website traffic to the National Club Golfer website via our email and social media channels as well as driving entries to grow our NCG Top 100s Tour events amongst other tasks.

Not one to change his equipment too often, Matthew currently plays the TaylorMade M2 driver which has lasted the test of time in his bag. Elsewhere, you’ll find him using the TaylorMade Stealth 2 three-wood with a Ping G425 Crossover 2-iron to aid his long game.

Through his 4-iron to Gap Wedge, Matthew uses the Ping i500 irons accompanied by Ping’s Glide 3.0 56-degree and 60-degree wedges.

Another club that has stood the test of time in his bag is a Nike Method Core MC-3i putter which has had to have the SuperStroke grip changed at least three times. Ball of choice is the Titleist ProV1.
