Another record payday in women’s golf took place at the season-ending CME Group Tour Championship.
Lydia Ko took home the $2 million first-place prize, moving her to fifth on the career money list, passing Suzann Pettersen ($14,837,579) and Lorena Ochoa ($14,863,331) with $16,695,357 in official earnings. She has won $4,364,403 total this season.
Lorena Ochoa still owns the single-season earnings record of $4,364,994, 2007, just $591 more than Ko in 2022.
Seven-figure checks remain rare in women’s golf. This year, seven will be handed out, though the Aon Risk Reward Challenge $1 million prize is unofficial money. Minjee Lee won both the $1.8 million winner’s check at the U.S. Women’s Open and Aon race this year.
