The 2024 LPGA Tour was the 75th edition of the LPGA Tour, a series of professional golf tournaments for elite female golfers from around the world. The season began at the Hilton Grand Vacations Tournament of Champions, in Orlando, Florida on January 18, and ended on November 24, at the Tiburón Golf Club in the CME Group Tour Championship at Naples, Florida.[1] The tournaments were sanctioned by the United States-based Ladies Professional Golf Association (LPGA).
Nelly Korda won seven times and was the Player of the Year.[2] Atthaya Thitikul set the single-season earnings record with $6,059,309, aided by the $4 million prize for winning the season-ending CME Group Tour Championship.[3]
Schedule and results
[edit]The number in parentheses after each winners' name is the player's total number of wins in official money individual events on the LPGA Tour, including that event. Tournament and winner names in bold indicate LPGA majors. The schedule and purse amount for each tournament is listed on the LPGA website.[4] The LPGA has a standard formula for payout percentages and distribution of its purse and prize money for every event. The winner typically gets 15% of the total, second place gets 9.3%, third place 6.75%, etc.[5]
Total purse for 2024 was $126.3 million.
