Xander Schauffele's PGA Championship prize money is revealed as he enjoys huge pay day after winning his first major title in Kentucky

After winning the PGA Championship on Sunday at Valhalla Golf Club, Xander Schauffele will pocket $3.3million, as the event raised its first-place prize money by $1million this year. 

Schauffele's birdie putt on the final hole of the tournament raised the money he left Kentucky with by nearly $1.4million, as second-place finisher Bryson DeChambeau won $1.998million for his six-under-par effort on Sunday. 

Each of the top three finishers becomes a millionaire from this event alone, as Viktor Hovland won $1.258million. 

The total purse from the PGA Championship is the largest in the event's history at $18.5million, with every player making at least $22,100 for completing 72 holes. 

Every single player with a top-10 finish is taking home more than half-a-million bucks. 

Every golfer finishing in the top 31 places earned at least $100,000 from their weekend in Louisville. 

The Masters had a total purse of around $20million, giving golf's next major a slightly smaller amount for total winnings. 

Scottie Scheffler, who won $521,418 for finishing in a tie for eighth place, won $3.6million for winning a green jacket. 

The odd part for Scheffler is winning the Masters was only his third highest payout of the season. He won $4.5million at the Players Championship and $4million at the Arnold Palmer Invitational.  

Collin Morikawa and Thomas Detry earn $814,000 each for finishing in a tie for fourth place.
