How much did Brian Harman win at The Open Championship 2023? Prize money payouts explored

Brian Harman won three million dollars for his victory in The Open Championship. This amount is an increase of half a million dollars over the amount received by the 2022 champion, Cameron Smith.

The $16.5 million purse was to be distributed in seven-figure sums up to third place. However, due to the ties at The Open Championship, these amounts had to be prorated and defined according to the rules governing the matter in international golf.

The second-place finishers received $1.08 million, while the next in order (T6) received just over $550,000.

The Open Championship is the lowest purse of the four major tournaments, but all participants receive prize money, even those who did not make the cut.

Those who did not play over the weekend will receive between $8,500 and $12,000, depending on their place on the leaderboard.
