Meijer LPGA Classic Prize Money Payout 2025
The latest event on the LPGA Tour comes from Michigan, where Lilia Vu defends her title and the chance to claim a big first prize


The LPGA Tour heads to Blythefield Country Club in Michigan where another eye-catching purse is available.
Like the 2024 edition of the tournament, players are competing for an overall purse of $3m. Last year, Lilia Vu defeated Grace Kim and Lexi Thompson in a playoff for her fifth LPGA Tour win and the first prize of $450,000, and that’s what this week’s champion will earn too.
There’s a sizeable consolation for the runner-up, who will earn $282,976, while everyone finishing in the top six is in line for a payout of more than $100,000.
It’s not the first time $3m has been the available purse this season, either, with the LPGA Black Desert Championship and the Mizuho Americas Open also offering the figure.
As usual, it’s not just financial rewards that are on the table, with world ranking points to claim, while 500 Race to the CME Globe points will be awarded to the winner.
Below is the prize money payout for the Meijer LPGA Classic.
