PAYDAY AT WALTON HEATH
Here is the prize money payout for each golfer at the 2023 AIG Women’s Open

Lilia Vu won the AIG Women’s Open Sunday to collect her third LPGA title this year and her second major championship after winning the Chevron Championship in a playoff earlier this year. Still, she was surprised and called the six-shot victory at Walton Heath “surreal.”
The 25-year-old American described it as such because, well, she’d be struggling over the past few months. Since the Chevron win in April, she’d missed four cuts and hadn’t finished better than a tie for 35th place.
Until now.
Vu walked away with the first-place check of $1.35 million out of a $9 million purse, which was up 23 percent over the Women’s Open from last year at Muirfield. Celine Boutier took home $1,000,000 for her victory at the Amundi Evian Championship two weeks ago. Allisen Corpuz won $2,000,000 for winning the U.S. Women’s Open at Pebble Beach. Vu collected $765,000 for winning the Chevron Championship.
It was also announced earlier in the week that AIG had signed on to sponsor the major through 2030.
