Patrick Cantlay net worth: How much is the PGA Tour star worth?
PGA Tour golfer Patrick Cantlay boasts a huge net worth thanks to prize money won on the course, endorsements and sponsorships.
PGA Tour golfer Patrick Cantlay may not be among the most popular players in the world but he is certainly one of the richest.
The majority of Cantlay's net worth comes from prize money won on the course.
Cantlay joined the Tour in 2014 and has already amassed nearly $50m in prize money.
Of course, a large portion of that figure came when he was crowned the FedExCup champion in 2021 and scooped a cool $15m bonus.
Only the man himself knows exactly how much cash he has in the bank but we can take a closer look at his finances.
Let's dive in...
PGA Tour prize money
As of 21 August 2024, Cantlay had amassed a whopping $47,959,215 in official PGA Tour prize money.
Cantlay has won eight times on the PGA Tour, although a major championship win still eludes him.
Let's take a look at his earnings since his debut:
2012 | $105,526 |
2013 | $195,411 |
2014 | $76,131 |
2015 | $11,468 |
2016 | Injured |
2017 | $2,049,632 |

2020 | $2,409,336 |
2021 | $23,838,804 |
2022 | $15,119,605 |
2023 | $6,040,625 |
2024* | $3,311,599 |
PGA Tour bonuses
Cantlay also benefits from PGA Tour bonuses, such as the player impact programme (PIP).
The Tour claimed the PIP, which was introduced in 2021, was a way to financially reward players who had the most significant impact in promoting the circuit and generating fan interest.
But some critics took a dim view, suggesting it was just a way to prevent more players joining the Saudi-back LIV Golf League.
The PIP awarded bonuses based on a player's influence on and off the course through a number of different metrics such as internet searches and TV exposure.
Cantlay did not feature in the inaugural PIP - which was won by Tiger Woods two years running before he was dethroned by Rory McIlroy - but he was awarded $2m in the 2022 and $6m in 2023.
PGA Tour Enterprises
Cantlay will also benefit from equity in PGA Tour Enterprises.
The for-profit company was set-up in 2023 and nearly golfers were given the opportunity to have equity.
According to NBC Sports, the Tour is planning a mid-march 2025 rollout for the equity programme.
Major championship prize money
Cantlay hasn't won a major championship yet but the big four typically offer bumper prize purses given their status.
In 2024, Cantlay picked up $175,500 at The Masters, $28,547 at the PGA Championship, $1,229,051 at the U.S. Open and $124,617 at The Open.
