DP World Tour Championship 2022 Purse: Payout and Prize Money Breakdown

The season finale of the 51 st DP World Tour season is currently underway in Dubai, United Arab Emirates. Fans are excitedly watching the top players of the DP World Tour compete against each other in the 5-day long European golf championship. Here, you will know about DP World Tour Championship 2022 Purse, Payout and Prize Money Breakdown

Since its establishment, the DP World Tour has been a fan-favorite event featuring top-level players and enormous-sized purses. The usual 72-par-based stroke play format is used in the event. The tournament is sponsored by Rolex.

The 2022 DP World Tour marks the 14 th official iteration of the event. The leading 50 golfers of the DP World Tour rankings are participating in the tournament. Unfortunately, the defending champion of this year, Collin Morikawa withdrew from the event a week before its initiation.

Let us look at some detailed information on the ongoing DP World Tour finale event.

DP World Tour Championship 2022 Purse:

As usual, DP World Tour Championship 2022 Purse is $10 million. It is the largest purse size ever provided in the tournament. Previously in 2021, the event provided a $9 million purse pool. Therefore, the purse pool increased by a whopping 11.1% this year, which will positively affect reward size for individual standings.

Unfortunately, the winner’s share won’t be affected by the purse increment. This is to be expected considering the already featured large amount. The 2022 tournament will reward the champion with a $3 million purse like the 2021 champion Collin Morikawa received last year.

However, all other position holders can expect a nice purse increment. This year’s runner-up will receive a guaranteed purse of $1,166,660. Whereas, the previous runner-up Matt Fitzpatrick received $1 million in 2021. Additionally, the purse for the 3 rd position holder is increased from $666,666 to $777,770.

The event provides all the participants with a share of the purse money. As such, the bottom placement holder will receive $32,900 in contrast to last year’s $25,800.

DP World Tour Championship Purse, Prize Money And Field

DP World Tour Championship Prize Money

Dp world tour championship field.

The 2021/22 DP World Tour season draws to a close with the DP World Tour Championship at the Earth Course at Jumeirah Golf Estates in Dubai, United Arab Emirates.

The top 50 players in the DP World Tour Rankings are eligible for the tournament. However, one player who won’t be making the trip to Dubai is reigning champion Collin Morikawa . The American's win also saw him finish top of the DP World Tour Rankings in 2021, but he misses out due to personal commitments this year.

Nevertheless, some of the biggest names in the game will be competing for the title. One player to pay particularly close attention to will be Matt Fitzpatrick . The US Open champion – who, along with Jon Rahm, was awarded Honorary Life Membership to the DP World Tour before the tournament - was runner-up to Morikawa last year along with Swede Alexander Bjork. However, Fitzpatrick is also one of four players to win the tournament twice, having clinched the title in 2020 and 2016.

Another of those players is Rory McIlroy . The current World No.1 won the tournament in 2012 and 2015 and will be confident of clinching a hat-trick of wins. If he manages that this week, he will also guarantee finishing top of the DP World Tour Rankings for the fourth time.

Tommy Fleetwood defended his title in last week’s Nedbank Golf Challenge at the Gary Player Country Club in South Africa. He will hope to take that momentum into this week’s tournament. Meanwhile, Viktor Hovland will also expect to deliver a strong performance in a city where he has enjoyed relatively recent success. The Norwegian won the Slync.io Dubai Desert Classic at the start of the year, albeit at a different venue, the Emirates Golf Club.

As well as McIlroy, Fitzpatrick, Fleetwood and Hovland, three other players in the field are in the running to finish top of the DP World Tour Rankings. One of those is New Zealander Ryan Fox, who is currently placed second. Irishman Shane Lowry , currently eighth, can also finish top, as can ninth-placed Adrian Meronkof Poland. There are several scenarios where Fox could finish at the top of the pack. However, like McIlroy, the only way to keep the outcome in his hands is to win the tournament.

One player who is not in the running to finish top of the rankings but will be confident of success this week is Rahm. The Spaniard, who spoke before the tournament about the lack of Official World Golf Ranking points afforded to it relative to this week’s RSM Classic on the PGA Tour, won the tournament in 2017 and 2019.

As the last of the season’s DP World Tour Rolex series tournaments, there is an elevated prize purse of $10 million. To finish higher up the prize list, players will need to get to grips with the Greg Norman-designed course, which takes inspiration from the parkland courses of the USA and Europe, and features a final four holes that Norman once described as “the most difficult mile in golf.” That closing stretch will almost certainly offer a fitting finale to the DP World Tour season. Whoever comes out on top will win $3m.

Where Is The DP World Tour Championship Held?

The DP World Tour Championship is held at the Greg Norman Earth Course, which is part of Dubai's Jumeirah Golf Estates. The course, which has held the tournament since it opened in 2009, is inspired by the parkland courses of Europe and the USA. 

How Does The DP World Tour Championship Work?

The top 50 players in the DP World Tour Rankings are eligible for the season-closing DP World Tour Championship. It has been held since 2009 and replaced the Volvo Masters, which involved the top 60 money winners on the Order of Merit. Like most other DP World Tour events, the action takes place over four rounds of stroke play.

He has written hundreds of articles on the game, from features offering insights into how members of the public can play some of the world's most revered courses, to breaking news stories affecting everything from the PGA Tour and LIV Golf to developmental Tours and the amateur game.

Here’s the prize money payout for each golfer at the 2022 DP World Tour Championship

By GolfDigestME.com To say Jon Rahm loves playing the DP World Tour Championship on the Earth Course at Jumeirah Golf Estates would be the understatement of understatements. The 28-year-old Spaniard had two wins and a T-4 showing in his three previous starts in the DP World Tour season finale, posting a scoring average of 67.66.

It was more of the same this week, as Rahm followed up an opening-round 70 with a 66-65-67 finish to take the tournament title for a third time, outpacing Tyrrell Hatton and Alex Noren by two shots. In the process, he lowered that career scoring average to 67.5.

It was Rahm’s ninth career DP World Tour victory and fifth win in the tour’s elevated Rolex Series events. With the triumph, Rahm claimed the $3 million first-place prize money payout from the overall purse of $10 million. He also saw his career earnings on the DP World Tour rise to €21,834,859.52, the 19th player in tour history to break the €20 million mark.

There was another winner on Sunday as well as Rory McIlroy, while finishing four strokes back of Rahm in solo fourth place, earned the DP World Tour’s Harry Vardon Trophy as the season-long points title winner. It’s the third time McIlroy has won the honor, but the first in a season in which he also won the PGA Tour’s FedEx Cup title.

Here's the prize money payout for each golfer at the 2023 DP World Tour Championship

Rory McIlroy and Nicolai Hojgaard walked away the big winners from this week's DP World Tour Championship. McIlroy won the overall points title for the fifth time while Hojgaard was the winner of the Tour Championship with a 21-under total.

David Cannon

An already memorable 2023 season on the DP World Tour for Nicolai Hojgaard—in which he played in his first Ryder Cup—got even more so on Sunday at the DP World Tour Championship. The 22-year-old Dane closed out the final round at the Jumeirah Golf Estates in Dubai with a eight-under 64 to charge past overnight leader Matt Wallace and claim victory with a 21-under 267 performance, two shots better than Wallace, Tommy Fleetwood and Viktor Hovland.

Hojgaard’s victory is the third of his career on the DP World Tour but his most lucrative. The first-place prize money payout was worth $3 million from an overall purse of $10.5 million. The payday from Sunday (€2,764,461 in Euros) amounts to more than 40 percent his entire career earnings to date on the DP World Tour (€6,380,134.75).

Here's the prize money payout for each golfer who competed in the DP World Tour’s season finale.
