A grand total of $17 million is up for grabs in this year's British Open, along with the claret jug and a gold medal. The 13th highest purse of the tour so far will see the winner grab $3.1 million.

Scottie Scheffler won the 2025 Open Championship, the first British Open victory of his career, giving him career wins at three of the four major tournaments. Only the U.S. Open remains.
