How Much Did Nelly Korda Win At The Chevron Championship?
Nelly Korda cruised to a third Major title in Texas, but how much did the Chevron Championship winner secure for her victory?
Matt Cradock
After four days of action, it was Nelly Korda who dominated at Memorial Park Golf Club, securing a five stroke victory at the first women's Major of the year.
Going wire-to-wire in Texas, the American never looked phased as she wrapped up a third Major title, a second Chevron Championship win in three years and a second LPGA Tour victory of 2026.

The victory has given Korda plenty of perks and, being a former winner, she already has a lifetime exemption into the championship.
Now calling herself a three-time Major champion, Korda also pocketed the $1.35 million first prize, claiming the top cheque from the $9 million tournament purse.
Along with Korda, there were strong weeks for Ruoning Yin and Patty Tavatanakit, who shared second spot and wrapped up $732,384 each for their efforts.
In fact, all of those inside the top 10 earned six-figure paydays following their excellent week in Texas, with the full prize money payout listed below...
