LIV Golf New York Prize Money Payout 2026: How Much Does The Individual Winner Earn?
The penultimate regular event of the LIV Golf season sees players compete for a huge purse at Trump National Golf Club Bedminster
An uncertain summer for the LIV Golf League is rapidly drawing to a conclusion, with the penultimate regular event of the season coming from Trump National Golf Club Bedminster.
Off the course, CEO Scott O'Neil has confirmed that a deal has been agreed for investment to save the circuit's future. While we await details on what that might entail, on the course, it's been business as usual.
That means another huge prize purse for the 57 players in the field in New York, with the individual event alone offering an overall purse of $20m, with $4m going to the winner.
With just one round to play of LIV Golf New York, a familiar name was at the top of the leaderboard - Joaquin Niemann, who was closing in on his ninth title on the circuit and second of the season.
He led Harold Varner III by two on 14 under after 54 holes. Lee Westwood was third on 10 under.
As ever, that's not all the prize money on the table, with the 13 teams all in line for a payout, too.
Harold Varner III trailed Joaquin Niemann by two with a round to play
In total, $10m is shared between the 13 teams, with $3m going to the winning line-up. Niemann's Torque GC led by two with a round to play.
Team earnings are split between the franchises, not by players, so any money earned via their collective finish will not go towards an individual's takeaway.
Despite that, some individuals are in line for even more money courtesy of the $2.3m bonus pool, which is allocated to players in the top three teams at each tournament.
The money is distributed at the discretion of the captains, with the top team set for a $1m windfall, the team finishing second $800,000 and the team in third $500,000.
Below is the maximum prize money payout for each position at LIV Golf New York before ties are taken into account.
