Here, you can learn how much every player made at the 2026 RBC Heritage. The headline says that.
As to how they made it? There are various means, of course, and earlier this week, Justin Thomas offered some thoughts, after being asked: If you were an agent recruiting college players, what would you look for? How do you know someone is going to do well?
“I feel like the golf side, obviously you can see,” Thomas said. “I notice a lot, or probably what I pick up on more than anything is just talking to them and how they talk and how they go about things.
“I know I’ve been around some college players that are very comfortable, if you will, and it’s hard to explain, but versus somebody like Jackson [Koivun], I don’t think he — he doesn’t feel like he’s owed any of this or I should play like this or I deserve this. He seems like he just really wants to be the best player he can be, and he’s not cocky, he’s not arrogant, he doesn’t think he’s above anybody or any situation versus some other — I’ve been around maybe some that are.
“I would say for me, that would probably be the biggest thing is just kind of seeing how they handle themselves.”
Thomas was then asked what he thought sets him apart.
“You have to have some skill,” he said. “You have to have some — there’s a lot of people you see try and do something athletic or sport related where you’re just like, you’re just not going to get it. I have some of those people in my family. I’ve watched them try to play golf and I’m like, you’re never going to be good at golf, no matter how hard you try. That is a part of it.
“But it’s a good question. I’m not sure if I could — other than a specific thing in golf, I don’t know. I think my work ethic and my want to win golf tournaments and drive to be the best, I think, has a lot to do with where I am. But I’m not sure.”
With that, here is the complete payout breakdown for this week’s RBC Heritage, played at Harbour Town Golf Links. The total purse is $20 million.
