Chevron: 2025 Chevron Championship Final Payouts, Prize Money, Winnings for LPGA's First Major

The LPGA's major championship season kicks off this week in Houston for the annual Chevron Championship. It's offering a $9 million purse, with $1.2 million to the winner. The purse has been bumped up $100,000, while the winner's share remains the same. Nelly Korda returned as the defending champion and No. 1 player in the world. Her win at the Chevron last year was her fifth in a row, extending a streak that would run to seven events. It was also her second major title. Jeeno Thitikul entered as the highest-ranked player in the world without a major title, and she has five top 10 finishes so far this season. Lydia Ko, Brooke Henderson and Minjee Lee are also among the headliners who figure to contend. The opening round was a reminder of just how hard it is to defend a major title: Korda shot a 5-over 77, 12 shots off the lead shared by Haeran Ryu and Yan Liu, and the top-ranked player in the world faced a tough battle Friday just to make the cut. Here are the final payouts for the 2025 Chevron Championship. This article will be updated Sunday night. 2025 Chevron Championship Final Payouts Win: $1,200,000 2: $663,382 3: $481,237 4: $372,274 5: $299,640 6: $245,159 7: $205,207 8: $179,785 9: $161,625 10: $147,095 11: $136,196 12: $127,116 13: $119,125 14: $111,864 15: $105,325 16: $99,514 17: $94,433 18: $90,073 19: $86,442 20: $83,534 21: $80,632 22: $77,723 23: $74,822 24: $71,913 25: $69,372 26: $66,831 27: $64,283 28: $61,743 29: $59,202 30: $57,022 31: $54,842 32: $52,662 33: $50,483 34: $48,303 35: $46,491 36: $44,672 37: $42,860 38: $41,041 39: $39,222 40: $37,772 41: $36,321 42: $34,870 43: $33,412 44: $31,961 45: $30,871 46: $29,781 47: $28,691 48: $27,602 49: $26,512 50: $25,422 51: $24,700 52: $23,971 53: $23,242 54: $22,520 55: $21,791 56: $21,062 57: $20,340 58: $19,611 59: $18,889 60: $18,160 61: $17,800 62: $17,431 63: $17,071 64: $16,710 65: $16,341 Copyright ABG-SI LLC.
