Dustin Johnson in 2022 is estimated to be a total of $100M. According to sources, Dustin’s prize money from the competition totals $70 million. He is the third-highest-paid golfer of all time if you factor in the $15 million he won at the 2020 FedEx Cup championship, trailing behind only Phil Mickelson ($92 million) and Tiger Woods ($120 million).
However, in terms of accounting, FedEx Cup money is not included in PGA tour profits. In the event that $15 million is subtracted, Dustin will rank as the fifth highest-earning golfer in history.
