Payday at Lake Nona
Here's the prize money payout for each golfer at the 2024 LPGA Hilton Grand Vacations Tournament of Champions

Lydia Ko turned a two-shot lead entering the final round into a two-shot victory Sunday at the Hilton Grand Vacations Tournament of Champions. She shot a final-round 70 to end with a 14-under-par 274 total. Alexa Pano was second and Brooke Henderson was third.
Ko, 26, could only muster two top-10 finishes in 20 LPGA tournaments in 2023, failing to qualify for the season-ending CME Group Tour Championship for first time in her LPGA career. But a victory alongside Jason Day in the Grant Thornton Invitational in December allowed her to end the year with a positive. And she carried that on this week at Lake Nona Golf and Country Club in Orlando, Ko’s home course in the U.S., with rounds of 69-67-68-70.
The victory marked the 20th of Ko's career, making her just the 15th player in the tour’s history to crack that milestone. She also claimed the $225,000 first-place prize money payout from the overall purse of $2.5 million. That pushed her past the $17 million in career earnings, making her just the fifth player to achieve that milestone.
She also claimed an additional LPGA Hall of Fame point, leaving her one shy of the 27 points needed to earn qualification and become the 35th member.
