Last Monday, officials with KPMG, the PGA of America and LPGA proudly announced the purse for this year’s KPMG Women’s PGA Championship would be $US13 million. The winner will receive $US1.95 million.
Karis Davidson has credited a refreshing, extended break from professional golf last year for catapulting the Queenslander into career-best form in time for her first major start in over a year at this week’s KPMG Women’s PGA Championship.
Asked what she planned to do with her record-breaking windfall after the round, Jeeno Thitikul delivered a hilariously honest – and painfully relatable – answer.
The LPGA, which celebrates its 75th anniversary in 2025, released its schedule Wednesday for the upcoming year, featuring 33 official events and a total prizemoney payout of more than $US131 million (approximately $201m), an all-time high.
