Prize money payouts for all the golfers at the 2022 KPMG Women’s PGA Championship

Prize money at the KPMG Women’s PGA Championship has jumped a whooping 300 percent since 2014.

That means this year’s winner, In Gee Chun, is taking home $1,350,000 for claiming the third major on the LPGA’s 2022 schedule.

By comparison, Minjee Lee earned $1,800,000, the largest paycheck in women’s golf history, for her win earlier this month at the U.S. Women’s Open. Jennifer Kupcho took home $750,000 after she collected her first LPGA title at the Chevron Championship.

Lee’s 1-2 finish at the last two majors has earned her $2,518,827 in those two events alone.

The 2022 KPMG was staged at Congressional Country Club in Bethesda, Maryland, marking the first time a professional women’s event has been held at the historic Blue Course.
