The 3M Open purse has climbed to $8.8 million for the 2026 edition at TPC Twin Cities, continuing the PGA Tour’s upward trend in prize money after a string of elevated events earlier in the summer. First-time winner Jackson Koivun secured the $1.584 million champion’s check—18 percent of the total purse—while world No. 1 Scottie Scheffler settled for $959,200 in solo second place. Key payout highlights • Top-three finishers: $1,584,000; $959,200; $607,200. • A seventh-place finish still rewarded $297,000, underscoring the depth of this year’s purse structure. • Every player inside the top-21 earned six-figure paydays, with 21st place collecting $107,800. Why the purse matters 1. FedExCup race: Koivun’s victory delivers 500 FedExCup points and vaults him into postseason contention at a critical point on the calendar. 2. OWGR boost: The win is worth 42 Official World Golf Ranking points, a significant leap for the 21-year-old rookie. 3. Sponsor momentum: 3M’s investment illustrates how non-designated weeks are leveraging larger purses to attract marquee names; Scheffler’s appearance validates that strategy.
