The weekly purses for LIV Golf competitions will increase to $30 million in 2026, with the extra $5 million going toward the team competition, the Sports Business Journal reported Monday.
Beginning next season, $20 million in purse money will continue to cover individual stroke play with $10 million dedicated to the team competition, per the report.
By comparison, the eight Signature Events of the PGA Tour carry $20 million payouts. The highest payout on the PGA Tour -- even among majors -- is The Players Championship at $25 million.
The 13 LIV Golf teams are set up to be run independently, with each captain signing his own commercial deals and players.
