A week after the Major season began, LIV Golf's sixth event of the campaign has been taking place at Club de Golf Chapultepec in Mexico City.
Many of the protagonists who struggled at Augusta National have fared far better on their home circuit, and finding form here again will have been the immediate priority for those who harbor dreams of lifting Major titles in the near future.
In terms of LIV, though, winning tournaments in order to catch and surpass current rankings leader Jon Rahm is what has been driving much of the field in Mexico this week.
However, with one round to play, it was Rahm at the top of the leaderboard, with the Spaniard holding a two-shot advantage over Legion XII teammate Tyrrell Hatton at 14 under.
Whoever comes out on top, it will be well worth it financially as there is a $4 million check for the champion from a total individual purse of $20 million.
Any individual success will also go a long way to helping their team triumph as well, with a cool $10 million on the line between the 13 team. Whichever side shoots the lowest cumulative score over the week will take $3 million for their franchise.
In addition, there is the individual bonus payout for one player among each of the top-three teams.
The prize money doesn't necessarily have to be awarded to the lowest-scoring pro, however, as team captains are able to decide which of their roster most deserves the bonus that week.
Below is the maximum prize money payouts for each category at LIV Golf Mexico City before ties are taken into account. These figures will be updated once the tournament has been completed.
