Although the FedExCup Season of the PGA Tour concluded, the fun has not ended just yet. After the TOUR Championship, the PGA Tour starts the FedExCup Falls season, which this year will have eight events starting with the Procore Championship (previously Fortinet Championship) played at Silverado Resort – North Course in Napa Valley.
Starting at the Procore Championship, the pros will have a chance to secure a seat inside the top 125 on the PGA Tour standings and secure the 2025 card. the winner of the 2024 Procore Championship will be bagging a million sum from Napa Valley but the twist is the prize purse has decreased this year In 2023, Sahith Theegala earned $1.512 million from the purse of $8.4 million. But as the sponsor of the event changed from Fortinet to Procore, the prize money dropped to $6 million, a $2.4 million decrease.
From this, the winner will get $1.08 million while the runner0up will suffice himself with $654,000. On the other side, for the first time in a while, the DP World Tour has the identical sum of purse. At the Amgen Irish Open, where Rory McIlroy has been playing, the winner will also get the million-dollar check.

Despite what has been a trend on the PGA Tour, that is the steep increase in the PGA Tour prize purse in the regular season, that was not seen at the Procore Championship. As things are different for the FedExCup Fall season event, what else does the winner get from it and is it the same as other regular PGA Tour events?
What’s more at stake at the Procore Championship?
Usually, the events in the Fall season have more diluted fields as compared to other elevated or regular events of the PGA Tour. The reason is that most of the highly ranked players take this time off and enjoy it with their families. Maybe that was the reason why the prize purse dropped. Nonetheless, although the purse is relatively low, there are no other changes that the winner from the regular event and a fall event gets.
