What type of prize money do winners of the PGA championship receive?
Yang, who earned 1.35 million dollars in prize money, clinched the win with a six-foot putt. He then celebrated on the 18th green by hoisting his golf bag in the air with both hands before taking possession of the Wanamaker Trophy. He not only becomes the first Asian to win a major, he also bettered the previous best performance by a South Korean. His compatriot K.J. Choi was third in the 2004 Masters tournament.
