How much money do players make in Kentucky’s only PGA Tour event?

A multi-million dollar purse is on offer this week for the PGA Tour’s annual trip to Kentucky.

The 2025 ISCO Championship will pay out a total of $4 million to the golfers who make the cut this week at Hurstbourne County Club in Louisville. A field of 156 golfers will begin the four-round event Thursday. A 36-hole cut will take place following Friday’s second round, with the top 65 players and ties earning the ability to play the weekend.

The ISCO Championship — which was formerly known as the Barbasol Championship — has a reputation for producing some of the lowest scores on the PGA Tour. Last year’s ISCO Championship had an 8-under-par cut score, which set a PGA Tour record for the lowest 36-hole cut-line score in an individual, stroke-play event.

But this reputation was built at Champions at Keene Trace Golf Club in Nicholasville, where the event had been held since 2018. This year’s tournament is taking place at Hurstbourne — using a par-70 layout —for the first time.

Will the low-scoring trend continue this year in Louisville? And which golfer will emerge from the 156-player field to take home the winner’s share of the purse?

The winner of the 2025 ISCO Championship is set to collect $720,000, with plenty more big money available to the other top finishing players.

Here’s how the $4 million purse at the 2025 ISCO Championship will be awarded.

Parenthesis indicate the percentage of the $4 million purse that each position’s prize money is worth.

The amount given to each position is less if there are ties. Example: If two players tie for second place, they will each receive $356,000 instead of the $436,000 that would go to a solo second-place finisher.
