Tour Championship now offers richest prize in golf with $40M purse
OWINGS MILLS, Md. — The Tour Championship now has the richest individual prize fund in golf with the PGA Tour making the FedEx Cup payoff count as official money for the first time. The total purse is $40 million, with $10 million to the winner. Article content Since the FedEx Cup began in 2007, the bonus pool at the end of the Tour Championship was unofficial money, with part of it deferred. Article content Article content Article content Prize money was eliminated at the Tour Championship when the postseason was reduced from four to three tournaments in 2019, and the FedEx Cup bonus pool increased. Article content With the introduction that year of 'starting strokes' — the No. 1 seed started at 10-under par and had a two-shot lead over the No. 2 seed — whoever won the finale at East Lake won the FedEx Cup and was credited with a PGA Tour title for winning the Tour Championship. Article content In a change this year, the starting strokes were eliminated, and the top 30 players who reach the Tour Championship will all start from scratch like a normal tournament. Article content A PGA Tour spokesperson confirmed Wednesday evening that the $40-million bonus pool will now be official money at East Lake. Article content In another change, the $25 million for winning the FedEx Cup was spread out. Scottie Scheffler received $10 million for leading the FedEx Cup in the regular season, and he will get $5 million for being the No. 1 seed after this week's BMW Championship. That is still part of the bonus pool and will not be official money. Article content But now that the player with lowest score wins the Tour Championship — and FedEx Cup — the $40 million set aside for the top 30 players will be official, with $10 million to the winner. Article content Article content Scheffler leads the money list with $20,362,883. Masters champion Rory McIlroy ($16,156,418) and U.S. Open champion J.J. Spaun ($12,302,222) now will have a mathematical chance of topping Scheffler if they win at East Lake. Article content The runner-up at East Lake gets $5 million in official money, while third place gets $3,705,000. Last place gets $355,000. Article content The last time East Lake had an official purse was in 2018 at $9 million, and Tiger Woods won $1.62 million. Justin Rose won the FedEx Cup without winning a postseason event and got the $10-million bonus. Article content Patrick Cantlay was among several players who liked the change away from starting strokes, and he said winning the Tour Championship — even if a player was at No. 30 — was still worthy of being the FedEx Cup champion. Article content 'I think at this point if you played a whole year and get into the Tour Championship with the guys who have played — the 30 best guys who have played the best all year — and you beat them that week with everything on the line, that's a huge accomplishment,' he said.

Durham Region chair pushes back against councillor who questioned purchase of refrigerators
Region of Durham Chair John Henry pictured in this screengrab from a video posted on the region's website on Wednesday, Aug. 13, 2025. The chair of the Region of Durham is pushing back after a councillor questioned the purchase of refrigerators, which he claimed were each worth $4,000, for the region's headquarters. 'Enough is enough,' John Henry, the regional chair and CEO, said in a video statement posted on Wednesday afternoon. 'Regionally, we're committed to using public funds responsibly, making decisions that support long-term value.' The statement came hours after Regional Councillor Chris Leahy issued a news release claiming that 'whistleblowers' sent him evidence regarding the refrigerators the regional government bought as part of the kitchen renovations at its headquarters. Leahy said he received messages in the wake of the controversy over the Durham Region headquarters' new revolving doors. READ MORE | 'I guess we have money to blow': More fallout in Durham Region over pricey new front doors 'Two people sent me photographs of the refrigerators, including the make and model number label posted prominently on the inside. A quick internet search revealed that this model of refrigerator currently retails for $4,000,' Leahy said in the news release. CTV News has not seen the photos of the refrigerators. He added that the four renovated kitchens each have four refrigerators, inferring that the regional government may have spent as much as $64,000 for the appliances. 'We do not yet know how much Durham Region actually spent. But even people with a little knowledge of the industry practice will tell you, it's likely taxpayers paid for extended warranties which could quickly push the costs up by 10 per cent,' Leahy claimed in his statement. 'On the other hand, I am hopeful taxpayers received a volume discount.' The regional councillor for Whitby revealed that he plans to introduce a motion to the Committee of the Whole next month asking for the cost of the renovations. Leahy noted that the renovations to the headquarters and other facilities had an approved budget of $53.8 million. 'This most recent revelation makes my motions for full disclosure of the renovation costs even more relevant,' he said. In the video responding to Leahy's claims, Henry pointed out that the councillor is a member of the finance committee and thus he has looked at the cost and 'knows that everything went and goes through the proper channels with oversight and transparency.' 'While some councillors may choose to focus on generating headlines, our focus remains on the work that matters, delivering services and solutions that improve the lives of Durham residents every day,' Henry said. The chair did not disclose in his statement how much the region spent on the refrigerators but urged residents to reach out if they have questions.
