DP World Tour Finals: All prize money, bonuses and the ten new PGA Tour players
In addition to the tournament victory, the million-dollar bonus pool was distributed in Dubai. The complete breakdown of all prize money and Tour card winners.
The DP World Tour Championship in Dubai marked the spectacular conclusion to the 2025 season, with the tournament not only the scene of a dramatic Players victory for Matt Fitzpatrick over newly crowned season champion Rory McIlroy, but also the culmination of a multi-million pound finale.
The season finale at Jumeirah Golf Estates yielded a triple financial and career-boosting bonus: A million-dollar bonus pool was paid out to the top ten players in the DP World Tour (Race to Dubai) season, ten players received highly coveted PGA Tour playing rights, and the tournament prize money itself was enormous.
Race to Dubai Bonus Pool: Reward for the season's elite
Consistency throughout the golfing year was rewarded with an additional bonus pool, which was distributed to the top ten players in the season ranking, the Race to Dubai Ranking. The payout rewards the players who have earned the most points over the course of the season. The winner of the Race to Dubai, Rory McIlroy, therefore secured the highest share from this pool. The tournament winner, Matt Fitzpatrick, climbed to third place in the season rankings as a result of his triumph.

| 1 | MCILROY, Rory | Northern Ireland | $2,000,000.00 |
| 2 | PENGE, Marco | England | $1,000,000.00 |

The ten new PGA Tour players
The season finale had an invaluable value for one group of players: the awarding of playing rights for the 2026 PGA Tour. The qualification for the so-called Tour cards is clearly defined: The top ten players in the Race to Dubai rankings who did not previously hold playing rights the upcoming PGA Tour season will automatically receive them.
The cards enable the players to compete primarily in the United States in the coming year. One player whose performance this season deserves special mention is England's Marco Penge, who received one of the coveted cards thanks to his second place in the Race to Dubai: "It's been the year of my life. To have won three times and to have been in the draw so many times, my game has improved so much and I'm very proud of myself and everyone involved in helping me get to where I am today."
There was particular drama surrounding the final qualifying spot, with Denmark's Rasmus Neergaard-Petersen's shared third place at the tournament allowing him to play his way into the top 10 qualifying zone at the last minute, edging out a rival.
These ten players earned their PGA Tour card

Prize money of the DP World Tour Championship
At ten million dollars, the prize money of the DP World Tour Championship itself is immense and represents one of the largest individual prize pools in world golf. Tournament winner Matt Fitzpatrick, who prevailed in the play-off, received by far the highest individual payout of the weekend.
