2026 CJ Cup Byron Nelson payout, purse: How much will each golfer get?

The CJ Cup Byron Nelson Tournament wraps up Sunday, May 24, and although it is not a major, the golfers involved are still getting paid the big bucks.

TPC Craig Ranch in McKinney, Texas offered a prize purse of $10.3 million this weekend, to be split among all competitors. Obviously though, some will earn more than others. In fact, this year's winner will take home $1,854,000.

Entering Sunday's final round, it's Si Woo Kim leading the field at 21-under. However, he is followed closely by both Wyndham Clark and last year's champion Scottie Scheffler at 19-under. Given Scheffler's tendency to come up big in pivotal moments, it wouldn't be a shock to see last year's winner make a run on the final day. Kim and Scheffler tee off together at 1:40 p.m. ET.

Here's a breakdown of what each golfer will earn based on their finish at the tournament.
