Alright, let’s talk about this Justin Rose fella and how much money he’s made playin’ that golf game. I ain’t no expert, mind you, but I heard some folks chatterin’ and I pieced it together.
So, this Justin, he’s been swingin’ them clubs for a good long while, like, 24 years they say. That’s a lot of time chasin’ that little white ball around! And seems like he’s done alright for himself, money-wise. They say he’s raked in over 66 million dollars, all told. Can you believe that? Sixty-six million! That’s enough money to buy a whole lotta cows… and maybe a new tractor too!
Now, where’d that money come from? Well, mostly from winnin’ golf tournaments, I reckon. They call ‘em “official events” and stuff. He’s got over 63 million just from that! And then there’s another 3 million from somethin’ they call “unofficial events”. Sounds like he gets paid even when he ain’t playin’ in the big games. Must be nice.
- He also got some extra change, like 535 thousand dollars, from somethin’ called “Tour Championships”. Don’t rightly know what that is, but sounds fancy.
- And get this, they even give him money just for wearin’ certain hats and stuff. I heard he gets a whole 5 million dollars a year just for wearin’ a hat with some company’s name on it. Five million! For a hat! Lord have mercy.
This year, 2024, he’s already made over a million dollars, and it’s only May! He got a big chunk of that, like over 600 thousand, just for doin’ good in one tournament, the PGA Championship they called it. He didn’t even win, just came in sixth, and still got all that money! These golfers, they’re somethin’ else.
I also heard tell that this Justin won a big ol’ tournament back in 2013, the U.S. Open. That’s a big deal, apparently. And it was a tough one too, nobody finished under par they said. But Justin, he kept his head and won the whole shebang. That probably got him a nice chunk of change.
They break down his earnings by year, you know. Like, in 2021-22 he got over 1.4 million. And in 2020-21 he got a little over 1.3 million. Then in 2019-20, he made a bit less, around 965 thousand. And back in 2018-19, he had a really good year, makin’ over 4.3 million! That’s a whole lotta hay, that is.
They keep track of how many tournaments these fellas play too. Justin, he plays around 13 to 20 tournaments a year, depends I guess. And he’s won a few, not sure how many exactly, but enough to make all that money. They say he hit the 50 million dollar mark a while back, along with another fella named Adam Scott. Joined some fancy club, seems like.
Now, they got this list of all the golfers and how much money they made. Tiger Woods, he’s at the top, with over 120 million. Can you imagine? Then there’s this other fella, Jack Nicklaus, he’s on the list too, but he don’t got as much as Tiger. But you know, money ain’t everything. Still, seems like this Justin Rose has done real well for himself playin’ that golf game. Sixty-six million dollars… That’s a lot of money, no matter how you slice it. More than I’ll ever see in my lifetime, that’s for sure!
