The 2026 DP World Tour Championship purse is $10 million, with $3 million going to the winner. The season finale runs Nov. 12 to 15 on the Earth Course at Jumeirah Golf Estates in Dubai.
It’s the second and final event of the DP World Tour Play-Offs. The top 50 available players in the Race to Dubai qualified after the Abu Dhabi Championship, and the season-long champion will be crowned Sunday.
How Much Does the Winner of the DP World Tour Championship Get?
The winner takes home $3 million, or 30 percent of the purse. The remaining $7 million is split among the rest of the field. It’s 72 holes with no cut, so every player gets a check.
Last year, Matt Fitzpatrick earned the $3 million after beating Rory McIlroy on the first playoff hole. McIlroy took $1.26 million for second. Four players tied for third and earned $486,250 each.
There’s more money on the line beyond the tournament itself. The top 10 in the final Race to Dubai standings split a $6 million bonus pool, with $2 million going to the season champion. Players must meet DP World Tour membership requirements to collect.

2026 DP World Tour Championship Purse
The $10 million purse matches 2024 and 2025. It hit a record $10.5 million in 2023. Combined with Abu Dhabi’s $9 million, the two Play-Offs events are worth $19 million.
Fitzpatrick’s win last year was his third at Jumeirah Golf Estates, after 2016 and 2020. That tied him with Jon Rahm and McIlroy for the most titles in event history. McIlroy still clinched his seventh Race to Dubai title, one behind Colin Montgomerie’s record of eight.
Every edition has been played at Jumeirah Golf Estates since the event debuted in 2009. Henrik Stenson is the only player to win it in back-to-back years, in 2013 and 2014.
