Now, let’s talk about the career totals. Rory McIlroy has earned over $90 million in on-course prize money alone. That’s not counting his endorsement deals, which push his net worth well past $200 million. Today’s win is just another drop in a very, very full bucket. He could lose his next ten tournaments and still afford to buy a small island chain.
So, how much did McIlroy win today? Probably somewhere between $1.5 million and $4 million, depending on the event. But the real answer is: enough to make you question every life choice you’ve ever made. He’s a walking, talking, golf-swinging lottery ticket. And while he spends his afternoon picking out a new luxury watch, we’ll be here, refreshing our bank apps, dreaming of the day we find a quarter on the sidewalk. Cheers, Rory. You magnificent, million-dollar man.
