After three intense days in Memphis, the 2024 FedEx St. Jude Championship is heading into its final round. This highly anticipated event on the PGA Tour has seen its fair share of excitement, with some of the best players in the world competing for a chance to win a significant portion of the tournament’s $20 million purse.
One of the most compelling stories this week has been that of Hideki Matsuyama. The former Masters Champion, who also secured a Bronze Medal at the recent Olympics, is within striking distance of one of the most impressive victories of the season. Matsuyama’s journey to Memphis was anything but smooth—he, his caddie, and his agent were robbed in London on their way home from the Olympics. Despite these challenges, and the absence of his usual caddie, Shota Hayafuji, Matsuyama has shown incredible resilience, entering Sunday’s final round with a commanding five-shot lead.
However, Matsuyama isn’t without competition. He’ll be pursued by a strong group of contenders, including Nick Dunlap, Viktor Hovland, Sam Burns, and Scottie Scheffler, all of whom are eager to make their mark in the first FedEx Cup playoff event of the year. The star-studded lineup and high stakes make this an event worthy of the PGA Tour postseason.
The tournament’s purse is substantial, with a total of $20 million up for grabs. As the players prepare for the final round, here’s a detailed breakdown of the payouts:
