2025 Hero World Challenge Final Payouts: Hideki Matsuyama Wins Top Prize

The Hero World Challenge effectively kicked off the PGA Tour's exhibition season, and it offered a $5 million purse, with $1 million to the winner—Hideki Matsuyama, who clipped Alex Noren with a birdie on the first hole of sudden death.
Not a shabby prize for the silly-season. Each golfer in the field also banked Official World Golf Ranking points in this no-cut event.
Tiger Woods made the trip to the Bahamas and joined Matsuyama at the trophy ceremony. Woods spoke to the media this week and covered a range of topics, but he didn't offer a timetable for his return to competition.
The show went on, and top-ranked Scottie Scheffler headlined the field. The two-time defending champion couldn't complete a three-peat, but he did contend deep into Sunday before finishing tied for fourth.
Here's the full list of payouts for the 2025 Hero World Challenge.
