DP World Tour players will be guaranteed $150,000 each next season as part of a record prize fund of $144.2m in the fightback against LIV Golf.
The Earnings Assurance Programme will see lower-ranked pros bank the money regardless of results if they play a minimum of 15 events. The PGA Tour announced a similar programme in August with US-based players guaranteed $500,000 a year as part of a new $415m schedule in 2023.
Both Tours have been forced to react to Saudi-backed LIV Golf which offered $255m in prize money for eight events this year with Dustin Johnson banking over $35m. LIV players have been offered huge signing-on fees with last place in each 48-man event worth $120,000.
