Rory McIlroy closing in on Jordan Spieth’s earnings in three years after $340,000 payday

Rory McIlroy is leading the PGA Tour prize money list by a significant margin after an impressive start to 2025.

The Northern Irish golf sensation pocketed another $337,843 for his T5 finish at the Houston Open over the weekend. McIlroy has already clinched two titles this year, starting with his victory at the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am and followed by his triumph at the Players Championship earlier this month.

His win at the latter event saw him pocket a staggering $4.5 million, bringing his total PGA prize money for 2025 to just over $9M. Interestingly, McIlroy’s current earnings are on the verge of surpassing Jordan Spieth’s combined earnings since the 2022/23 season.

Three-time major champion Spieth hasn’t had a win on the PGA Tour since his RBC Heritage victory in April 2022. He concluded that season with $7.24M, placing him 17th on the PGA money list that year.

However, Spieth has faced challenges in subsequent seasons, partly due to injuries, as he continues to seek another victory. The former US Open champion earned just $2.732M last year, with his best performance at a major being his T25 finish at The Open in July.

Spieth’s earnings have dipped below the tour average of $841,000, with his prize money for the first quarter of the year reaching $820,000. This means that since the 2022/23 season, Spieth has earned a combined $10.8M, a total McIlroy could soon exceed with his annual prize money if his strong start to the season persists.

In the same time frame, McIlroy has been raking in the cash with a whopping $33.8M to his name, including $13.9M in 2022/23 and another $10.8M last year. This year, the golf sensation is leading the pack, sitting $3.4M ahead of second-placed Russell Henley on the PGA money list after Henley’s triumph at the Arnold Palmer Invitational.

McIlroy’s financial success places him second on the PGA’s all-time money list with a cool $100M in career earnings, though he’s still trailing behind Tiger Woods by over $20M. Spieth impressively holds the eighth spot with earnings of $63.5M.

Despite his 43 career titles, McIlroy hasn’t clinched a major since 2014, but that could change as he gears up for the Masters starting Thursday, April 10. “I’m obviously playing well,” McIlroy told the PGA.

“I want to keep playing well. So I think every round you play, where you see good things, you’re sort of filling up that confidence bucket a little bit. So I want to see that.”

The Masters remains an elusive title for McIlroy, who came tantalizingly close in 2022 with a second-place finish, only to be cut and end up T22 in subsequent years. Despite a strong start to 2025, there’s a fresh worry among his fans after McIlroy mentioned a minor injury before heading to Augusta.

“My right elbow has been bothering me a little bit,” he told NBC Sports. “So maybe just get some treatment on that and make sure that’s ok going into Augusta.

“But I’ve got my coach Michael Bannon coming in tomorrow, we’ll do some work and just make sure that everything’s in good shape for a week’s time.”
