Woods receives a bonus of $8m (£6m) regardless of taking part in in only one match within the 2020-21 wrap-round season, the PNC Championship in December, at which he completed second along with his son, Charlie (pictured above).
Woods narrowly edged out Phil Mickelson for the highest prize, with the runner-up receiving $6m from the pool.
The Participant Impression Programme makes use of a spread of metrics designed to calculate a PGA Tour participant’s degree of fan engagement, together with their reputation in Google search, their Nielsen Model Publicity score, and Meltwater Mentions, amongst others.
The PIP programme represented the primary time that the PGA Tour provided bonuses to members that had been unrelated to their efficiency on the golf course. In 2022, the PIP programme will develop to $50m (£37.5m).
