LIV Golf Team Championship prize money: How much does each player win?

There might be a new venue for the season finale, but the LIV Golf Team Championship prize money remains the same.

After the regular season finished at Bolingbrook in Chicago – at which Jon Rahm was crowned the individual champion in his first year on LIV – the Spaniard will be hoping to add the team title to his trophy cabinet as the Saudi-funded league heads to Maridoe in Dallas.

The first two iterations of the Team Championship were played at Trump National in Doral, Florida, where Dustin Johnson’s 4Aces won in 2022 before Bryson DeChambeau’s Crushers took the title 12 months later.

Crushers will take an 8.5-point lead to Texas this week as they look to defend their title, with Rahm’s Legion XIII in second, Cam Smith’s Ripper GC in third, and Brooks Koepka’s Smash GC in fourth.

How is the prize money split?

There is a whopping $50 million up for grabs at the LIV Golf Team Championship.

That is broken down into a 60/40 split, with 60% of a team’s winnings going into the team prize pot, and each player receiving 10% of the remaining money.

This means that, for example, the winning team will share $8.4 million of the $14 million first prize, while each player will also receive a separate $1.4 million bonus.
