What are the benefits to winning a golf major?

When you win a golf major, aren't there a whole bunch of prizes and recognitions you receive? I know there's a money prize, and that you get invited to all the other majors..and apparently there's a dinner that you have to host, but is there anything else? Can anyone give me more detail about these benefits?What are the benefits to winning a golf major?And think of the bragging rights that it carries.|||Well dude is almost right. A golfer who wins a major plays in the Grand Slam of Golf that is held in Bermuda. Tiger would only play if he wins a major. He didn't play in the past 3 Grand Slams of Golf even though he won majors. He was injured this past year, but the last 2 he didn't play in. Other perks for winning majors is a 5 year exemption on the PGA tour. So if you don't win a tournament the following year, you automatically keep your card since you won a major. That helps. You win certain majors and you'll host a dinner(The Masters: You get to choose the cuisine for the dinner the following year and have dinner with past winners). During the first 2 rounds of the PGA Championship, the winners of the first 3 majors play in the same group. I don't know how much of a perk that is, but it is something only 3 people can do a year. You may get the opportunity to do different appearances at certain events unrelated to the PGA Tour. Hope this helps.What are the benefits to winning a golf major?The major golf tournaments have always been those which attracted the toughest competition with the exception of the Masters. Even there , the complexion has changed where the old timers who had won are no longer being catered to. It is still by invitation but certain numbers from the Open, U S Open, PGA automatically get that invitation.Since the competition is tougher and the courses which host those tournaments have been made harder, winning puts the person into an elite class. He then gets more advertising spots, guest appearances at functions which enhance his name as a competitor.|||Those answsers are correct, but missing A LOT of info!! Depending on the major, you can get up to a 5 year exemption on tour, Meaning that you are automaticaly qualified for ALL tour events and most European Tour events also. You can play in other countries, with BIG apperance money too!!What are the benefits to winning a golf major?you get to play in the grand slam of golf with tiger in hawaii.
