2024 LPGA Drive On Championship prize money payouts for each LPGA player.
Nelly Korda earned $262,500 for her performance, increasing her total career earnings to $9,223,989.
Nelly Korda, a native of Bradenton, Florida, has gained a new understanding of the saying “home is where the heart is” following her victory at the LPGA Drive On Championship, which took place only a short distance away from her parents’ residence.
Korda’s eagle-birdie finish at Bradenton Country Club vaulted her into a playoff against Lydia Ko. The two former No. 1s had the crowd rocking as Ko tried to play her way into the LPGA Hall of Fame, and Korda tried to go wire-to-wire.
“I thought I completely lost it,” said Korda, who began the day with a four-shot lead and trailed by three going into the last two holes.
Being in my hometown and having the hometown support was incredible. I didn’t think this many people would show up.”
Korda won $262,500 for her efforts, pushing her career earnings to $9,223,989.
Out of the 15 rookies participating, 10 were able to receive monetary rewards. Below is the complete distribution of the prize money for the initial full-field tournament in the 2024 LPGA season.
