International Series Japan Prize Money Payout 2025
The third of the Asian Tour’s elevated events comes from the Far East as several LIV Golf players compete


Following tournaments in India and Macau earlier in the year, the third of the Asian Tour’s elevated International Series events comes from Japan’s Caledonian Golf Club.
Like the previous two events this season, the 156 players in the field are competing for a share of a $2m purse, with $360,000 heading to the winner and $220,000 being banked by the runner-up.
Perhaps more importantly than the prize money is the possibility of one player earning a potentially life-changing LIV Golf contract at the end of the season. That will go to the star who finishes top of the International Series rankings.
Currently, existing LIV Golfers dominate the top of the standings, but there’s still a long way to go for the chance of a player without a current contract to climb the table. At present, International Series India winner Ollie Schniederjans, who is involved with LIV Golf this season, albeit as one of its reserves, is currently best placed to take advantage as he sits second behind leader Carlos Ortiz.
Below is the prize money payout for the International Series Japan.

Which LIV Golfers Playing In The International Series Japan?
Tom McKibbin is one of two Legion XIII players appearing
Even though many of the biggest LIV Golf stars will be more focused on preparations for next week’s PGA Championship, the fact that last week’s big-money event was also held in the Far East, when the circuit visited Korea for the first time, ensures several of its players are competing in Japan.
One is Majesticks GC player Sam Horsfield, while Hy Flyers GC star Cameron Tringale also plays. Other LIV Golfers in the field include Legion XIII’s Tom McKibbin and Caleb Surratt, Range Goats GC’s Peter Uihlein, Cleeks GC’s Frederik Kjettrup, Torque GC’s Mito Pereira and Ripper GC’s Lucas Herbert.
