Masters Tournament Set for Thrilling Finale with Record Prize Money

Augusta, Georgia — The 2025 Masters Tournament is gearing up for an electrifying conclusion on Sunday as an impressive leaderboard sets the stage for the final round. All eyes are on Augusta National Golf Club, where more than just the iconic green jacket is at stake.
This year’s event features a historic $21 million purse that will be distributed among the 53 players who made the cut. The 2025 champion will walk away with a staggering $4.2 million, an increase of $600,000 from Scottie Scheffler‘s winnings last year.
The top four finishers will earn a minimum of $1 million each, elevating the stakes as players vie not only for the title but also for significant financial rewards. Players finishing in 12th place or higher will secure invitations to the 90th Masters, making that rank a crucial target for many golfers.
Golfers finishing in 12th can still take home approximately $483,000, while those inside the top 50 are guaranteed at least $52,920. For players who do not make the cut, a consolation of $25,000 awaits.
The expanded television coverage by CBS Sports ensures fans won’t miss a moment on Sunday, with broadcasts slated from 12-2 p.m. before shifting to CBS from 2-7 p.m. Masters aficionados can catch all the action across various streaming platforms, including the CBS Sports app.
