The PGA Tour has moved on to the next phase of its schedule. Golfers are toiling hard at the Valero Texas Open to clinch the crown from defending champion Corey Conners. Meanwhile here’s more insight on the payout each participant will earn at TPC San Antonio this week. 

The Valero Texas Open will complete the PGA Tour’s two-week stay in Texas as the preceding WGC-Dell Match Play also took place within the state. However, unlike the Match Play event, the Valero Texas Open does not boast a $10.5 million prize purse. 

The total purse of the Valero Texas Open is $7.7 million and it would be interesting to find out which golfer takes home the maximum stake by winning the tournament. Right now, Cameron Tringale, Camilo Villegas, Jordan Spieth, and Matt Wallace are the favorites to win it. 

Detailed payout that each player will receive at Valero Texas Open 2021

The Valero Texas Open was unfortunately canceled in 2020 due to the pandemic. While it gave Corey Conners an extra year to remain the defending champion, his crown is on the line at TPC San Antonio this year. 

As mentioned above, the prize purse for the 99th edition of the tournament has been set at $7.7 million. The winner of the event will be rewarded with a handsome sum of $1,386,000 (traditional 18% split), and 500 FedExCup points as well.
