It pays to play well on the PGA Tour, folks. Especially in elevated events. Just ask this week’s winner, Joaquin Niemann.
The 23-year-old Chilean earned his second Tour win Sunday at the 2022 Genesis Invitational, winning wire-to-wire to become the event’s second-youngest champion.
The Genesis Invitational, hosted by Tiger Woods, is one of three events (Arnold Palmer Invitational, Memorial Tournament) that now feature a purse of $12 million, up from $10.5 million last year. Niemann will take home $2,160,000 for his two-shot win. Last year’s champion, Max Homa, earned $1,674,000.
