Rory McIlroy beats Tiger Woods by $3,000,000 in the PGA Tour Player Impact Program as golfers share $100,000,000 million bonus money

Dethroning Tiger Woods from the top position of the PGA Tour Player Impact Program, Rory McIlroy earned $15,000,000 from the $100 million bonus amount. Woods was the leader for the past two years, despite hardly playing in the tournament. However, in 2023, it was McIlroy who topped the list and earned the bonus amount.

In 2021, the PGA Tour PIP was established. Its purpose was to use objective assessment criteria to identify and honor the players who have contributed the most generously to the PGA Tour.

Numerous golfers have left the Tour in the past two years to play with LIV Golf. Nevertheless, McIlroy and Woods remained committed to the series, declining a million-dollar offer from the Saudi circuit last year.

PGA Tour unveiled the PIP list on Wednesday, November 22. Jon Rahm finished in third place followed by Jordan Spieth and Scottie Scheffler.

Here are the 20 golfers who topped the PGA Tour PIP list in 2023:

• 1. Rory McIlroy: $15,000,000

Additionally, the PIP purse for 2024 has been lowered by the PGA Tour from $100 million to $50 million, meaning that only 10 players would receive awards.
