Rory McIlroy may have had some struggles with his game over the past few months, but it's all coming back together just in time for the 2021 PGA Championship, starting on May 20. McIlroy is quickly becoming a favorite to take home the top prize and add to his majors. This year, the tournament's purse is $15 million, with the winner's share coming in at $2.7 million, the standard 18% payout (via Golf News Net).
That's certainly a pretty penny and would be a major score for McIlroy. It's about half of what he's estimated to make annually in various tour prizes, for a total of $40-50 million per year from tournament winnings and endorsements (per Celebrity Net Worth). In total, Rory McIlroy is worth an estimated $150 million. With easily another decade ahead of him on the pro circuit, McIlroy's star only continues to rise.
