US Open prize money 2025: How much JJ Spaun, others won
US Open prize money 2025: Check out how much JJ Spaun won for clinching his maiden major championship title at Oakmont Country Club in Pennsylvania.
America's JJ Spaun holed a monster birdie putt on the 72nd hole to clinch his first major title at the 2025 US Open.
Spaun overcame a disastrous start, a 96-minute rain delay, torrid conditions and the brilliance of Scotland's Robert MacIntyre to win by two shots.
MacIntyre began the day seven strokes adrift of 54-hole leader Sam Burns but produced the best score of the day to post the clubhouse target of 1-over.
Spaun then seized control of the major with a birdie at the drivable par-4 17th before producing a moment of magic to send the crowd into a complete frenzy.
The 34-year-old, who lost to Rory McIlroy in a playoff at TPC Sawgrass in March, was reduced to tears as he was hugged by his caddie and wife Melody.
Victory carries a number of perks for Spaun.
He gets to keep hold of the trophy for one year, is the recipient of the Jack Nicklaus medal, is exempt into the next 10 US Opens and has secured starts in The Masters until 2030.
Spaun also won his fair share of prize money.
The United States Golf Association confirmed earlier in the week the prize purse for the 2025 US Open would remain unchanged.
That means Spaun walked away with $4.3m from the $21.5m purse.
The announcement by the USGA means the tournament still has the largest prize purse of all the men's majors.
McIlroy scooped $4.2m from the $21m purse at The Masters whilst the aforementioned Scheffler picked up a cheque for $3.42m from the PGA Championship's $19m purse.
Last July's Open Championship - won by Xander Schauffele - had a total purse of $17m.
The R&A have not announced details of the purse for the 2025 edition of the men's major but it is unlikely to increase significantly, if at all.
