There's an increased purse on offer for the 2022 tournament at Harbour Town
www.golfmonthly.comI don’t have live access to the latest updates right now, but here’s what’s generally known about RBC Heritage prize money and the latest reported figures:
- The RBC Heritage on the PGA Tour typically features a total purse of around $20 million, with the winner often in the vicinity of $3.6 million in recent years. For example, in 2026 the winner Matt Fitzpatrick earned $3.6 million from a $20 million purse. This matches the tournament’s status as one of the Tour’s signature events with a top-tier prize pool.[3][7]
- The purse breakdown is published by PGA Tour and outlets like CBS Sports and Golf Channel, showing the distribution down the leaderboard (e.g., runner-up around $2.16 million, third around $1.36 million, and smaller amounts for lower finishes). The exact percentages and amounts vary by year but follow a consistent structure within the $20 million total.[8][3]
- Coverage from Golf Channel and Golf Monthly provides year-specific breakdowns and confirms the pattern of a $20 million purse and the winner’s share being $3.6 million in 2026. These sources corroborate the typical purse size and payout for recent editions.[4][7]
Illustration: If you want a quick snapshot, think of a $20 million purse where the winner takes about $3.6 million, with the rest spread across the top 2–5 finishers and the remaining positions receiving smaller shares. This pattern has been consistent across recent RBC Heritage editions.[7][3]
