Frustration for the World No2 but his T5 finish alongside Collin Morikawa saw him pocket a cheque for $674,953, which equates to approximately £553,000 or €643,000.

Power’s solid performance across the week saw him leave Boston with $347,058, which converts to approximately £284,000 or €330,000.
Fitzpatrick, celebrating his first ever major title, picked up $3,150,000, which converts to approximately £2,575,000.
