Ryan Fox is the winner of the 154th Open Championship and the New Zealand native is taking home more than golf’s oldest prize.
In addition to the claret jug, the Champion Golfer of the Year Fox earns $3.2 million from the $17,750,00 purse. Cameron Young, who finished runner-up for second time in five Open Championships, also walks away with a seven-figure payday. Same with Sam Burns, who will have a 2026 that includes a runner-up at Shinnecock and solo third at Royal Birkdale (good for a $1,181,000 check, for what it’s worth).
Here’s a look at the prize-money payout for Sunday at Royal Birkdale in Southport, England.
