PSL prizemoney: Sundowns raked in R115m, Chiefs R2m

While Mamelodi Sundowns, who're already known to have unrivalled financial muscle in the division, racked up R115m in competitions winnings, fellow heavyweights of local football Kaizer Chiefs endured a very barren season as far as making profit from tournaments is concerned, pocketing just above R2m, while another giants, Orlando Pirates, hit a R22m bonanza.

Stellenbosch and Sekhukhune United managed to make more than R10m each, while relegated Cape Town Spurs and Royal AM are the only two outfits who couldn't reach the R1m mark in total earnings through competitions.
