How do they decide who makes the cut in the PGA tour?
It depends if they are exempt to play in them or not. If they are a well known highly ranked golfer, they will play definitely the majors, and some other high profile events such as The Players Championship and the World Golf Championship events. They will also play the events which they are tied into due to sponsorships, and if they are offered an attractive appearance fee. They can also take a week or a few weeks off if they desire. Some other low ranked players who are not exempt or are low down the money list will often play as many as they can, and not have any choice.
How much money does Tiger Woods make for each tournament he wins?
Tiger Woods makes an appearance fee for each tourney, which he receives no matter what happens. If he misses the cut, he still makes between $500,000-$1,000,000, depending on the sponsors and the tourney. Then he also wins purse money, which also depends on the tourney. Suffice it to say that he makes more money just by showing up, regardless of anything else, than most people make in a calender year. Additional note:Tiger Woods only receives an appearance fee for a non PGA Tour event, e.g., when he plays in Dubai, Asia, or Australia. The PGA Tour does not pay fees to PGA Tour members. His endorsement money represents 95% of his income. In 2008, he made over $100 million, but only $5 million of that came from PGA Tour earnings.
