Matt Kuchar opened Sunday four strokes off the RBC Heritage lead. He quickly erased the deficit with a 30 on the front nine and punctuated the day by holing out from the bunker on No. 18 for a winning birdie. The shot earned him the seventh PGA Tour win of his career, gave him the tartan jacket and came with a first-place prize of more than $1 million.

Winning the RBC Heritage netted Kuchar $1.044 million of the $5.8 million purse. The win is the latest in a hot three-week stretch for Kuchar. A very lucrative stretch at that. He finished second at the Shell Houston Open three weeks ago, followed that up with a T5 finish at the Masters last week before winning on Sunday. The three impressive showings were good enough to net him more than $2.07 million. Not bad for a month of work and he still has another week if he chooses to play in the Zurich Classic.
With the win, Kuchar has now won more than $3.1 million this season, good for fourth on the money list. He’s risen up that list quickly during the last few weeks, jumping from 11th to fourth with the win. Kuchar is approaching $30 million in career earnings, with the latest paycheck taking him to more than $29.5 million.
Luke Donald came up just shy at the RBC Heritage yet again, but will get a consolation prize of $626,400 for his second-place finish. Ben Martin and John Huh tied for third, each winning $336,400. In all, 11 players won at least $150,000. Matthew Fitzpatrick would have received $55,680 for his T23 finish, but instead won’t take home a dime to preserve his amateur status. Here is a full look at the complete payout.
