This week sees the final off the 2024 Challenge Tour, as 45 golfers head to Mallorca for the Rolex Challenge Tour Grand Final 2024. The 45 remaining golfers will be playing for the €500,000 prize money with various different purse payouts up for grabs.
2024 Rolex Challenge Tour Grand Final Prize Money Purse Is €500,000
It’s off to Club de Golf Alcanada for golf fans this week as the Road to Mallorca concludes the 2024 season on the Challenge Tour.
The four day Challenge Tour gets started on Thursday 31st October and will climax on Sunday 3rd November, with the players competing for a total prize purse of €500,000.
A whole host of European Tour and even PGA Tour regulars have done well on the Challenge Tour in the past. Names such as Tommy Fleetwood, Henrick Stenson and Richard Bland are just a few of the stellar players who have made their way to the top of professional golf from the Challenge Tour.
Although the €500,000 payout is far less than you’d see on the PGA Tour and DP World Tour respectively, not to mention LIV Golf, it is still a lot of money for players of this calibre.
It isn’t just prize money at stake for every player at the event either. Each player will be in with the chance of claiming one of 20 potentially life-changing DP World Tour cards for the 2025 season. Once there, the possibilities are endless. As proven by players such as Henrick Stenson who have gone on to win major championships.
Overall, the entire Challenge Tour season offered a total of €8 million. That includes the half-a-million euros prize purse this week for the Road to Mallorca finale on the Challenge Tour.
How Much Will The Winner Get?
Of the €500,000 purse, the Challenge Tour Grand Final prize money for the winner stands at €85,000. This is the same payout that has been given to the winner of the Challenge Tour season finale for the last number of years.
The runner-up will get €54,000, while the third placed player gets €34,000.
You can see the full purse breakdown below, from 1st to 45th.

Who Is Favourite To Win The Challenge Tour Grand Final 2024?
The best golf betting sites in the UK are suggesting many players are in with a shout ahead of the 2024 Challenge Tour Grand Final this week from the Spanish island of Mallorca.
However, it’s Englishman John Parry and Finland golf sensation Oliver Lindell who head the market as the two outright favourites with the majority of UK bookmakers.
The favourites likely would have been South African Robin William and Dan Rasmus Neergaard-Petersen, but they are no longer in the field this week in Mallorca. This is due to the fact they have already secured DP World Tour cards in better categories thanks to their performances on it this season.
Both are in the current Top 20 of the Challenge Tour rankings, but their absence means the players finishing 21st and 22nd respectively come the end of the tournament will earn the final two DP World Tour cards.
