The PGA Tour is set to issue significant equity payouts to its top players as part of a new initiative to reward loyalty amidst competition from LIV Golf. Tiger Woods is expected to receive up to $100 million, Rory McIlroy around $50 million, and Jordan Spieth $30 million. This move follows a recent $3 billion fundraising round aimed at stabilizing the PGA Tour's position against the rival LIV Golf, which has been enticing players with lucrative offers. The payouts are part of the PGA Tour Enterprises' Equity Program, which today detailed the value of award grants to members including Woods, McIlroy, and Spieth.

Tiger Woods reportedly getting $100 million for staying loyal to the PGA Tour. I got an offer today for $500 if I sign up for an investment account for staying loyal to CitiBank. So, I think we both won today.
