Masters 2016 Payout: Prize Money and Purse Breakdown for Top Golfers

Jordan Spieth's epic collapse on the back nine of Sunday's Masters tournament cost him a chance at a second straight championship but also about $1 million.

Englishman Danny Willett brought home $1.8 million with his first victory at Augusta National Golf Club, where he finished at five under.

Spieth and Lee Westwood split the second and third payouts, taking home $880,000 each. A bogey on 17 cost Spieth $200,000 alone as the second-place prize was set for $1,080,000.

Although his overall score of three under is nothing to be ashamed about—and he already has a green jacket of his own—the back nine on Sunday is something Spieth wishes he could forget, per the PGA Tour: "A really tough 30 minutes for me that hopefully I never have to experience again."

Although Willett was a surprise winner for most, he was ranked No. 12 in the world heading into Augusta after finishing tied for third in his first two tournaments of the season.

Sunday was his first PGA Tour victory, but that's mainly because he plays the European Tour more often. He won four events last year, according to Brian Costa of the Wall Street Journal.

However, he earned more on Sunday than the $677,265 in total prize money he'd won on the PGA Tour since the 2013 season, per PGATour.com.

Aidan Coughlan of Lovin Dublin.com joked Willett now will be able to afford a few more things in life:

Willett also finished tied for sixth at the British Open last year, so he's no stranger to top finishes. Yet this victory will go down as the best—and most lucrative—of his career so far.
