But Nick Taylor isn’t worrying about that, winning for the third consecutive season by taking the Sony Open in a playoff over Nico Echavarria. It was his fifth Tour win overall, he’s also now a perfect 3-0 in playoffs. Here’s a full breakdown of the results and payouts.

Nick Taylor defeated Nico Echavarria in a playoff at the Sony Open in Hawaii, but he needed a miracle to get there in the first place.

Here's the breakdown of how much prize money each PGA Tour player earned this week at the 2025 Sony Open in Hawaii.

For so long it appeared as if the Sony Open in Hawaii was going to be won by J.J. Spaun or Stephan Jaeger, yet after 72 holes it was Nico Echavarria and Nick Taylor that fought it out in the sudden-death playoff, with Taylor winning on the second extra hole.

The Sony Open offers an $8.7 million purse with $1,566,000 going to the winner. Grayson Murray made a 40-foot birdie putt on the first playoff hole to defeat Ben An and Keegan Bradley. It was the first win since 2017 for Murray, who had publicly acknowledged his personal struggles. He took his own life in May.

Nick Taylor loves a playoff, winning for the third time in as many tries in the last three years, the latest at Waialae Country Club.

Now he leads the field of 144 players who are competing for $8.7 million with the winner taking home a $1.566 million prize money payout. Other top-20 ranked players competing are Keegan Bradley (12), Sahith Theegala (13), Robert MacIntyre (14), Billy Horschel (15) and Russell Henley (17).
