Brian Harman picked a great week to have a really great week.

The former Georgia Bulldogs star won the British Open by six shots on Sunday, and along with his name on the Claret Jug, Harman collected the largest first-place prize in Open history: $3 million. Jon Rahm, Sepp Straka, Tom Kim, Jason Day tied for second, and each banked $1.084 million.

The R&A bumped up this year's British Open purse to $16.5 million, an 18% increase from last year's Open at St. Andrews, which offered $14 million.

The Open has followed the trend of other majors in boosting its prize money this year. Here are the purses for each of this year's four majors:

Masters: $18 million
PGA Championship: $17.5 million
U.S. Open: $20 million
