LIV Golf Adelaide prize money: How much did each golfer earn?

Brendan Steele is laughing all the way to the bank this morning after picking up his first victory in the LIV Golf League.

The American, whose last win came at the Safeway Open in 2017, edged out Louis Oosthuizen and Charl Schwartzel after a rowdy weekend on Australia’s south coast with a winning score of 18-under-par.

Anthony Kim, playing as a wildcard in the 2024 LIV Golf season, finished dead last, meaning he has now failed to get inside the top 50 of the 54-man field in four attempts.

There was also a near miss for Oosthuizen and Schwartzel in the team event, too. Stinger GC, which also features fellow South Africans Branden Grace and Dean Burmester, were beated in a playoff by Ripper GC, the Aussie quartet of Cam Smith, Lucas Herbert, Matt Jones and Marc Leishman.

Steele’s HyFlyers GC – which also features Phil Mickelson, Cameron Tringale and Andy Ogletree – came third.
