"Our purse is $21.5 million. Winner's check is $4.3 million. We didn't raise our purse this year," USGA CEO Mike Whan said. "When I started at the USGA just four years ago, our purse was $12.5 million, so I feel comfortable that we've been a leader in moving fast and bigger. [...] We want the money to be commensurate with the achievement."

J.J. Spaun won the U.S. Open in dramatic fashion Sunday for his second PGA Tour title. He also collected $4.3 million. Runner-up Robert MacIntyre earned $2,322,000 while Viktor Hovland, who was solo third, picked up $1,459,284. Here’s how the full $21.5 million purse was paid out at Oakmont Country Club.

J.J. Spaun delivered a finish to remember on his way to winning the 2025 US Open. The 34-year-old holed a 64-foot putt on the 18th hole at Oakmont Country Club to win the season's third major with a one-under score.
