The PGA Tour returned to the Jack Nicklaus-designed Muirfield Village for the Memorial Tournament, June 4-7.

Given Nicklaus is the host, it always draws a great field, but once again, it’s even better since it is a PGA Tour signature event. Virtually all of the top PGA Tour players were in the field.

In a thrilling final round, J.T. Poston won in a playoff on the second hole against Ryan Gerard. Both players finished at 12-under.

The purse was $20 million.

How Much Does the Winner of The Memorial Make?

J.T. Poston’s winner’s share for winning The Memorial was $4 million.
