Valspar Championship 2026: Full purse breakdown and payouts
A star-studded field heads to Palm Harbor as the PGA Tour reveals the complete prize money for the Valspar Championship 2026, featuring a $9 million purse.
The Valspar Championship is the next stop for the PGA Tour, returning to the Copperhead Course at Innisbrook Resort in Palm Harbor with a regular, highly-competitive field. This event annually draws a strong slate of players, all chasing a share of a sizable purse as the tour heads south for Florida's spring swing.
This year, the purse stands at $9 million, and organizers have laid out a full prize-money payout structure for all finish positions. With 132 players in the field, the competition promises a wide-open contest where several players have a real shot at moving up the money list and the BP (tour) rankings through the weekend.
Notably, five big-name players are not in the field this year, including Rory McIlroy, which could shift the dynamics and opening opportunities for others to contend. Even so, the absence of some top names isn’t expected to dampen the excitement on Copperhead, where players will navigate the course’s traditional risk-reward holes and potential for big swings.
Fans can expect a transparent look at how the purse will be distributed—from the winner’s share down to those making the cut—giving a clear picture of the stakes at stake on Sunday afternoon. The event remains a staple on the PGA Tour calendar and a favorite stop for both players and supporters alike.
As the rounds unfold, all eyes will be on who seizes the momentum, climbs the leaderboard, and secures a meaningful payday in this beloved Florida stop on tour.
