For the third year in a row, the co-sanctioned ISPS Handa Women’s Scottish Open comes from Dundonald Links, where many of the world’s best players participate for a share of the $2m purse.
That’s an identical sum to the 2023 event, which was won by Celine Boutier. The French player beat Hyo Joo Kim by two shots to give her back-to-back LPGA Tour titles after victory at the fourth Major of the year, the Amundi Evian Championship, the week before.
That earned her a windfall of $300,000, and the player who lifts the trophy on Sunday will claim the same amount, with the runner-up collecting $188,651.
There are also 500 Race to the CME Globe points available to the champion, as players continue their season-long battle to qualify for the finale, the CME Group Tour Championship, which will have a purse of $11m.
Below is the prize money payout for the ISPS Handa Women’s Scottish Open.
