The 2024 CME Group Tour Championship prize money payout is from the $11 million purse, with 60 professional players who complete four rounds at Tiburon Golf Club in Naples, Florida, earning LPGA Tour prize money and an official-money paycheck this week.

The winner's share of the CME Group Tour Championship prize pool is at $4,000,000, with the second-place finisher taking home $1,000,000. CME Group Tour Championship prize money payout breakdown shows a payout of 15 percent of the purse to the winner, and how much each LPGA Tour player earns is guaranteed down to the last-place professional player.

This tournament started with 60 players, and a cut was not made this week after two rounds to the top 65 and ties. Every player who made the field is paid for the week.

Every professional player in the field is paid for completing the event, but how much each player is paid at the 2024 CME Group Tour Championship from the correct 2024 CME Group Tour Championship full-field payout is based on their finish.

The LPGA Tour cut rule is typically down to the top 65 and ties, with no secondary cut. When more than 65 professional players make the cut, the payout is modified to ensure all players are paid, with the winner always getting 15 percent of the purse.

What else is on the line

Beyond money, there are important points, perks and benefits on the line for the field -- in particular, the tournament winner.

The winner of this event will win the Race to the CME Globe.

Additionally, there are Rolex Women's World Golf Ranking points on the line for the winner.

While this event offers a significant payday, a win comes with the benefits that come with winning on the LPGA Tour. Winners of these events get a two-plus season exemption on the LPGA Tour, as well as berths into other big tour events.
