How Many Golfers Are Millionaires? A Look At The Wealthy World Of Golf

The PGA Tour had a record-breaking year with 139 players earning at least $1 million in the 2022-23 season. This means 188 male golfers worldwide reached that milestone, reflecting the significant financial success of professional golf.

It’s important to remember that this figure only includes PGA Tour players. There are also a significant number of successful golfers outside of the PGA Tour who earn millions of dollars. These players often compete on other major tours like the European Tour, the Asian Tour, or even in various professional golf leagues around the world. Some also earn substantial income from endorsements and sponsorships. So, the number of millionaire golfers is likely even higher than the reported 188 when you consider the diverse and global nature of professional golf.
