The International Swing section of the DP World Tour season concludes with the Jonsson Workwear Open in South Africa - the second successive event in the country.

Last week, the Tour visited Eastern Cape for the SDC Championship, where Jordan Gumberg took the honours as well as a first prize of $255,000. That was from an overall person $1.5m, which was one of the smaller prize money payouts on the DP World Tour this season. There’s an identical sum and first prize at this week’s tournament, which takes place at Glendower Golf Club.

Overall, the DP World Tour season will hand out around $148.5 million in prize money this season, and some of that will go towards the leading player at the end of each phase.

Thanks to Rory McIlroy’s runner-up at the Dubai Invitational that began the International Swing phase, followed by his win at the following week’s Dubai Desert Classic, the four-time Major winner, who is playing in the PGA Tour’s Arnold Palmer Invitational this week, is set to claim the $200,000 bonus for finishing top. 

However, there’s still the incentive for a player not otherwise exempt to gain entry to July’s lucrative Genesis Scottish Open. South African Zander Lombard is currently in pole position to take advantage, but will he get over the line here?

Below is the prize money payout for the 2024 Jonsson Workwear Open.

Where Is The Jonsson Workwear Open?

The third edition of the tournament takes place at its third different venue - Glendower Golf Club, in Edenvale, South Africa. The parkland course has also hosted several editions of the South African Open Championship.
