The PGA Tour season consists of four major tournaments, though the Players Championship stands as the unofficial fifth major and offers the richest financial prize in the sport.
The total purse payout is $10.5 million, with each of the top two finishers receiving over $1 million for their efforts. Last year's winner Jason Day took home $1.89 million, the same amount that will be handed to the 2017 champion.
Here's the prize payout for each of the top 20 finishers at the 2017 Players Championship:
