How much money does the winner get in Valhalla

Moving Day at the 2024 PGA Championship continues, and the Wanamaker Trophy is anyone's.
With mild conditions at Valhalla this week, birds are plentiful and scores are high down. For just the third time in the history of a major tournament, the cut was down to the world's best flag-waving players.
Xander Schauffele and Collin Morikawa started the day atop the leaderboard, but there are plenty of talented runners in their wake. Big winners litter the front page of the leaderboard with dozens of successful players right behind.
As they say, to the winner goes the spoils, and this week in Kentucky is no different. Not only will the winner take home the Wanamaker trophy and a handful of releases, they'll also be very rich.
The PGA of America announced on Saturday that the total prize money for this week's tournament is $18.5 million, with the winner receiving $3.33 million. The total fund is a million over 2023, and $6.5 million over 2021, while the winner's share sees the same inflation over that period.
