How much prize money did Peter Malnati win at the 2024 Valspar Championship?

OK, so the majors in golf are where you are going to find the biggest lure for players, both in terms of the stature of winning the title as well as the financial rewards that come with it. But don’t be fooled, there is very decent money at stake across the PGA season and few will be sticking up their noses at the prize money at this weekend’s 2024 Valspar Championship.

As well as delays and some weather challenges, we’ve also had some stunning golf played at Innisbrook Resort’s Copperhead Course in Florida and Peter Malnati eventually came through to be pronounced the winner. Yes, the yellow ball man! So what prize did he get, and what about the rest of the field? Let’s take a look...
