The Masters Tournament is the first major of the year and the purse for this year's event remains unchanged for the third straight year at $11,500,000.

Along with a green jacket, gold coin and replica winner's trophy, this year's champion will take home a payout of $2,070,000.

Professional players that are cut from the field each receive $10,000, while amateur golfers receive no money prizes.

In 2020, Dustin Johnson took home $2.07 million after winning the tournament in historic fashion.

Johnson broke the tournament scoring record that had stood for 23 years, winning by five shots after shooting 20-under-par 268.

Also: Masters sensation Will Zalatoris looks a lot like Happy Gilmore's caddie. So Adam Sandler wished him luck

And: Jon Rahm keeps rising up the Masters leaderboard. This shot on Amen Corner had him crossing himself
