Payouts for Pros:
$750 Added cash to be spread out through all pro divisions. Cash will be payed out via PayPal unless the player does not have a PayPal account, then they can receive cash instead. If an amateur player competes in the pro division and wins cash, they can opt in to receive a Capital discs gift card instead so that they can keep their amateur status. If they accept the cash, they will be required by the PDGA to move to a pro status.
