The prize money for next week's Open Championship at Royal Lytham has been frozen at the 2011 rate with the winner of the Claret Jug picking up £900,000, the same as Darren Clarke at Sandwich last July.
The total purse of £5m has been kept the same with the runner-up earning £520,000 and those other finishers in the top-10 taking home six-figure cheques.
Players who make the halfway cut will be guaranteed at least £9000 while those who fail to make the grade and finish near the foot of the standings after 36 holes will still pocket £2350.
