3M Open 2022: Purse, Prize Money, and Payout

The 3M purse pays out the top 65 golfers in a 156-player field.

That means about 42 percent of the golfers playing this weekend will take home a share of the 3M Open purse.

The top 65 players that make the cut including ties will rank with some sort of payout from the purse. Any player that plays four rounds will earn money. However those in contention after the 36 holes have the highest payouts.

For the 2022 3M Open, the winner will receive $1,350,000 USD, which is a $170,000 increase compared to last year’s champion. Second place will earn $817,500. Meanwhile, the last place finisher after the cut will still get to pocket a smooth $16,125 USD.

2022 3M Open Purse Increases 14 Percent Compared to 2021

While the 3M purses have been relatively the equal over the last couple years, the 2022 season opens the biggest purse yet at $7.5 million USD.

In 2020 and 2021, the purse was the same at $6.6 million with a payout of $1,188,000 for the champion.

For the 2022 season, the 3M Open purse gets a massive bump in prize money and will see a 14 percent increase in the overall purse.

One week after the final major championship of the season, most of the PGA Tour stars are resting, which gives underrated players a rare opportunity to make a name for themselves at TPC Twin Cities.

With a less competitive field, the biggest 3M Open purse ever will be up for grabs this weekend.

Below, we’ll break down the past 3M Open purses over the last four years.

3M Purse ($) Winner’s Share ($) Champion Year
7,500,000 1,350,000 TBD 2022
