Signed Pro Contracts
The 20 signed Pro men and women will receive a contract amount for competing in the 2026 WFP season. These athletes are guaranteed that to receive that contracted amount even if their prize money falls below their earned prize money from the competitions.
For example, James Sprague’s 2026 contract is $80,000. If Sprague only earns $60,000 from the prize purses listed above, the WFP will still pay Sprague $80,000 based on his contract.
However, if Sprague wins both Tour Stops and is 1st place for the season, his prize money would be $170,000. That would be the amount he receives from WFP in 2026.
