It’s been a long and awkward summer for the LIV Golf League, especially off the course, but following a break of almost two months the focus has returned to live action.<\/p>\n
LIV Golf has been back in the country it all started as JCB Golf and Country Club welcomed the latest 57-man field to England for a four-day individual and team event.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n Joaquin Niemann<\/a> claimed the seventh of his eight career LIV Golf wins here last year, with other former winners including Jon Rahm<\/a>, Cameron Smith and Charl Schwartzel in 2022.<\/p>\n For whoever follows that list of huge players in 2026, there is a massive payout heading their way. As usual, in the individual competition, there is $20 million on the line – $4 million of which will go to the champion.<\/p>\n But should their team also finish inside the top-three, the respective captain might believe they are worthy of picking up the $1 million bonus check LIV introduced in 2026<\/a>. There are checks for $800,000 and $500,000 via that bonus category as well.<\/p>\n You may like<\/p>\n Team earnings are split between the franchises, not by players, so any money earned via their collective finish will not go towards an individual’s takeaway.<\/p>\n Nevertheless, there is big money available in the team event as well, with $10 million shared out between the 13 golf clubs in action.<\/p>\n While these numbers are deeply impressive, every player involved will be able to relate to contenders at The Open last week – and especially the winner – who saw their take-home pay total significantly reduced<\/a> compared to the headline numbers below.<\/p>\n Nevertheless, you can find out the maximum prize money payout for each position at LIV Golf UK before ties are taken into account below.<\/p>\n LIV GOLF UK INDIVIDUAL PRIZE MONEY BREAKDOWN<\/p>\n Swipe to scroll horizontally<\/p>\n Position<\/p>\n Prize Money<\/p>\n 1st<\/p>\n $4,000,000<\/p>\n 2nd<\/p>\n $2,250,000<\/p>\n 3rd<\/p>\n $1,500,000<\/p>\n 4th<\/p>\n $1,000,000<\/p>\n 5th<\/p>\n $800,000<\/p>\n 6th<\/p>\n $700,000<\/p>\n 7th<\/p>\n $600,000<\/p>\n 8th<\/p>\n $525,000<\/p>\n 9th<\/p>\n $450,000<\/p>\n 10th<\/p>\n $415,000<\/p>\n 11th<\/p>\n $380,000<\/p>\n 12th<\/p>\n $360,000<\/p>\n 13th<\/p>\n $340,000<\/p>\n 14th<\/p>\n $320,000<\/p>\n 15th<\/p>\n $300,000<\/p>\n 16th<\/p>\n $285,000<\/p>\n 17th<\/p>\n $270,000<\/p>\n 18th<\/p>\n $260,000<\/p>\n 19th<\/p>\n $250,000<\/p>\n 20th<\/p>\n $240,000<\/p>\n 21st<\/p>\n $230,000<\/p>\n 22nd<\/p>\n $220,000<\/p>\n 23rd<\/p>\n $210,000<\/p>\n 24th<\/p>\n $200,000<\/p>\n 25th<\/p>\n $195,000<\/p>\n 26th<\/p>\n $190,000<\/p>\n 27th<\/p>\n $185,000<\/p>\n 28th<\/p>\n $180,000<\/p>\n 29th<\/p>\n $175,000<\/p>\n 30th<\/p>\n $170,000<\/p>\n 31st<\/p>\n $165,000<\/p>\n 32nd<\/p>\n $160,000<\/p>\n 33rd<\/p>\n $155,000<\/p>\n 34th<\/p>\n $150,000<\/p>\n 35th<\/p>\n $147,500<\/p>\n 36th<\/p>\n $145,000<\/p>\n 37th<\/p>\n $142,500<\/p>\n 38th<\/p>\n $140,000<\/p>\n 39th<\/p>\n $137,500<\/p>\n 40th<\/p>\n $135,000<\/p>\n 41st<\/p>\n $132,500<\/p>\n 42nd<\/p>\n $130,000<\/p>\n 43rd<\/p>\n $129,000<\/p>\n 44th<\/p>\n $128,000<\/p>\n 45th<\/p>\n $127,000<\/p>\n 46th<\/p>\n $126,000<\/p>\n 47th<\/p>\n $50,000<\/p>\n 48th<\/p>\n $50,000<\/p>\n 49th<\/p>\n $50,000<\/p>\n 50th<\/p>\n $50,000<\/p>\n 51st<\/p>\n $50,000<\/p>\n 52nd<\/p>\n $50,000<\/p>\n 53rd<\/p>\n $50,000<\/p>\n 54th<\/p>\n $50,000<\/p>\n 55th<\/p>\n $50,000<\/p>\n 56th<\/p>\n $50,000<\/p>\n 57th<\/p>\n $50,000<\/p>\n
