LPGA Tour Prize Fund Surpasses $120m After Boost For JM Eagle LA Championship

Nelly Korda takes a shot at the Fir Hills Seri Pak Championship.

The 2024 LPGA Tour season had already promised record-breaking overall prize money. However, it has now been given a further boost with an announcement that the payout for April’s JM Eagle LA Championship, which will be headlined by new World No.1 Nelly Korda, will be $3.75m. 

As well as a new high for a regular-season event, that means that players are now competing for an overall prize fund of more than $120m across the LPGA Tour season, just two years after it had stood at $70m.
