Ryan Fox is the winner of the 154th Open Championship and the New Zealand native is taking home more than golf\u2019s oldest prize.<\/p>\n

In addition to the claret jug, the Champion Golfer of the Year Fox earns $3.2 million from the $17,750,00 purse.<\/a> Cameron Young, who finished runner-up for second time in five Open Championships, also walks away with a seven-figure payday. Same with Sam Burns, who will have a 2026 that includes a runner-up at Shinnecock and solo third at Royal Birkdale (good for a $1,181,000 check, for what it\u2019s worth). <\/p>\n

Here\u2019s a look at the prize-money payout for Sunday at Royal Birkdale in Southport, England. <\/p>\n
