Sony Open 2024: Purse, Prize Money, and Payout

The Sony Open was first introduced in 1965 and was known as the Hawaiian Open. The name has changed over the years due to sponsorships.

The Sony Open is scheduled right after the first signature event of the year. However, on the PGA Tour, it also marks the first event of the season to feature a full field. Over the last few years, the tournament has gained popularity, thanks in large part to the difficulty of the Wai’alae Country Club course.

In 2024, the Sony Open winner will take home a solid $1.49 million. The total purse is valued at $8.3 million with the top 65 players taking home a piece of the prize pool.
