The LIV Golf League made headlines again in 2024, partly because of the huge prize money paid out to the players. The final regular season event took place at Bolingbrook Golf Club in Chicago, where Jon Rahm celebrated his second win of the season, securing not only the tournament victory but also the overall title. With an impressive four million dollars in prize money for his victory and an additional 18 million dollars bonus for winning the individual ranking, Rahm tops the season’s earnings list.
Jon Rahm is the Top Earner of the Season
Jon Rahm has not only won the season’s overall standings, but also tops the LIV Golf League money rankings. The Spaniard has earned an incredible 34,754,488 dollars in total. Following closely behind Rahm is the captain of Torque GC, Joaquin Niemann. The Chilean fought hard for overall victory in Chicago, but was narrowly beaten. Nevertheless, he can look back on a successful year with a second place and a bonus of 12 million dollars. His total earnings amounted to 28,379,167 dollars. Sergio Garcia is in third place in the money rankings. The Spaniard finished the season strongly, securing third place in both the tournament and the overall rankings. With a bonus of 4 million dollars, his total is an impressive 17,334,643 dollars.

How the Prize Money is Distributed at the LIV Golf League
As in the previous year, a pot of 25 million dollars was distributed equally for each of the 13 events. A total of 20 million dollars is divided up for individual prize money. The remaining 5 million dollars will be used for the team ranking. Only for the season finale, the LIV Golf Team Championship, which will take place in Dallas from September 21 to 23, will the prize pool be increased to a total of 50 million dollars.
For the regular tournaments of the season, the prize money is divided as follows: The individual winner of each tournament will receive 4 million dollars. A further 750 thousand dollars is awarded for each game played by the four-man team that wins the team title. The prize money is reduced proportionately with lower tournament placings. However, no one has to worry about going away empty-handed, as even the last-placed team in each tournament takes home 120 thousand dollars.
