The World Wide Technology at Mayakoba is currently underway and the El Camaleón Golf Club is hosting it. Moreover, there are plenty of star players in the field like Brooks Koepka, Justin Thomas, Viktor Hovland, Matthew Wolff, and others.

This is one of the prominent events on the PGA Tour. No wonder why the field has so many top players, even more than previous years. Notably, Viktor Hovland is the defending champion at the event and is hoping to retain the trophy this year as well. 

Meanwhile, there are a total of 132-players on the field, with a few players earning their spot through Monday qualifiers. Moreover, there is a cut line after 36 holes, and the top 65 players and ties make it to the weekend. And only those players who make the final cut will receive a share from the tournament purse. 

The total prize money for the World Wide Technology at Mayakoba is $7.2 million. Evidently, it is a standard 18 percent payout according to the PGA Tour’s prize money distribution chart. The entire field is competing to get the highest share from the total purse of $7.2m.
