The LIV Golf League continues to make headlines regarding its long-term future<\/a>, but for the time being there is a tournament to be played and another mind-boggling pile of cash to be won.<\/p>\n

LIV Golf Virginia is the PIF-backed circuit’s first US stop of the year and has been taking place at Trump National DC after Robert Trent Jones Golf Club hosted for Joaquin Niemann’s victory in 2025.<\/p>\n

The Chilean hasn’t won in 2026, and that is all but certain to continue as he was 12 behind leader Lucas Herbert with one round to play.<\/p>\n

Whoever manages to win will take home the usual $4 million from a total purse of $20 million on the individual side. Second ($2.25 million), third ($1.5 million) and fourth ($1 million) can also scoop extraordinary amounts as well.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Due to LIV’s no-cut nature, each of the 57 pros involved will take home at least $50,000, with 46th and above earning over $126,000.<\/p>\n

As it relates to the team purse, there is $10 million on the line. Players don’t directly receive any of this money, though, but they will take a share at the end of the season if their franchise is in profit. Team money goes towards developing the franchise as well as several other costs the roster might incur.<\/p>\n

Then there is the $2.3 million bonus payout<\/a> for one player on each of the top three teams at the end of the week. Team captains decide who takes home the payouts of $1 million, $800,000 and $500,000, with the leading scorer from each club most likely to benefit.<\/p>\n
