What does the PGA Championship winner receive? Money, exemptions and a massive trophy

Scottie Scheffler — with both hands needed — raised the Wanamaker Trophy Sunday at Quail Hollow Club.

But does he get to keep it? And what else does he get?

The PGA champ receives a replica of the Wanamaker Trophy, which is only slightly smaller than the 28-inch tall, 27-inch wide, 27-pound primary model.

Here’s a look at how the purse will be paid out at the 107th PGA Championship.

He also gets $3.42 million from the championship-record $19 million purse, 750 FedExCup points and 1.5 points for every $1,000 earned in relation to the Ryder Cup standings.

And there are a bevy of exemptions (though, the only one of importance to Scheffler is the first):

  • Lifetime exemption into the PGA Championship;
  • Five-year exemption into the Masters, U.S. Open, The Open and The Players;
  • Five-year PGA Tour membership;
  • Seven-year DP World Tour membership.
