12. Matt Kuchar – $37,073,954
Matt Kuchar is currently the world number twenty. However, he has been around in the world of professional golf for quite some time. Thus, it should come as no surprise that he has earned a total of $37,073,954 prize money.
Kuch, that is his nickname, was born on June 21, 1978. He turned pro sixteen years ago, in 2000. He has won 12 professional tournaments, including 7 PGA Tour titles.
Being on our richest golfers list does not mean that Kuch had a smooth-sailing career. In early 2000s, he lost his PGA Tour card and had to fight to regain it.
He failed to do so a couple times in 2006. However, one year later, he got his tour card back by gaining top 100 spot in the Nationwide Tour money.
