After the drama of the second women’s Major of the year, the US Women’s Open, the LPGA Tour’s ShopRite LPGA Classic comes from New Jersey, a tournament that it is played over 54 holes rather than the more typical 72.
Last week’s event at Lancaster Country Club had the biggest purse in the history of the women’s game, $12m, and even though many of the players who competed in the Major are making the trip to New Jersey’s Bay Course at Seaview, they will be teeing it up for the chance to win far less.
The LPGA Tour season has a record prize fund, but this week’s event is among the smaller payouts on offer, with players competing for a total purse of $1.75m, the same as the 2023 tournament.
Back then, 2022 AIG Women’s Open champion Ashleigh Buhai won the tournament to earn a first prize of $262,500 ahead of Hyo Joo Kim, who won $165,070 for her efforts. The players who finish in the top two positions this week will earn the same amounts.
The winner will also receive 500 Race to the CME Globe points, with the battle to reach the season-closing CME Group Tour Championship, which will have a purse of $11m, continuing.
Below is the prize money payout for the ShopRite LPGA Classic.
