An already memorable 2023 season on the DP World Tour for Nicolai Hojgaard — where he played in his first Ryder Cup — was even more so on Sunday at the DP World Tour Championship. The 22-year-old Dane closed the final round at Jumeirah Golf Estates in Dubai with an eight-under 64 to beat overnight leader Matt Wallace and claim victory with a 21-under 267 performance, two shots better than Wallace, Tommy Fleetwood and Viktor Hovland.
Hojgaard’s victory was the third of his career on the DP World Tour but his most profitable. The first place prize money payout is worth $3 million out of a total purse of $10.5 million. Sunday’s payday (€2,764,461 in Euros) accounted for more than 40 percent of his entire career earnings to date on the DP World Tour (€6,380,134.75).
Here are the prize payouts for each player who competed at the end of the DP World Tour season.
