2025 AIG Women’s Open prize money payout: How much did each golfer win from the $9.75M purse?

The 2025 AIG Women’s Open is set to make history, not just on the course but also in its operations and prize offerings. For the first time at a UK golf event, robotic mowers will prepare the course each day, introducing cutting-edge technology to the championship setup.

In addition to this innovation, the tournament will feature a record-breaking prize purse of $9.75 million. That figure is nearly triple the total from just seven years ago and marks a $250,000 increase from last year’s edition.

The champion will receive $1,462,500, the largest winner’s share in the 49-year history of the AIG Women’s Open. The rise in prize money reflects the event's growing stature on the LPGA Tour and the increasing investment in women’s professional golf. With top players from around the world competing at Royal Porthcawl, the stakes are higher than ever.

The event now stands as the third-richest on the women’s golf calendar, behind only the U.S. Women’s Open, which offered $12 million earlier this season, and the KPMG Women’s PGA Championship, which featured a $10.4 million purse.

This year’s total of the AIG Women’s Open at St. Andrews represents a $250,000 increase compared to last year's edition, continuing the rising payouts across women’s professional golf.

Lottie Woad, who made headlines last week by winning the Women’s Scottish Open in her first professional start, comes into the AIG Women’s Open with strong momentum. Her recent performance has made her an early favorite, particularly with world No. 1 Nelly Korda still searching for her first win of the season. Lydia Ko returns as the defending champion, looking to build on her success from the previous year and hold off a competitive field at Royal Porthcawl.
