Black Mountain Championship Prize Money Payout 2024
The fifth International Series event of the Asian Tour season comes from Thailand as a field including influencers LIV golfers compete
The fifth of the Asian Tour’s International Series events is the Black Mountain Championship in Thailand.
Like the previous four events in the series, the prize money payout is $2m. The winner will claim $360,000 with the runner-up in line for a $220,000 windfall.
The International Series offers significantly more than elevated prize money. At the end of its 10 events, the player at the top of the rankings will earn a coveted place in the 2025 LIV Golf League with guaranteed prize money for appearing in each event along with the potential for life-changing earnings.
Even players who finish between second and eighth in the rankings will give themselves a good chance of joining LIV Golf as they’ll be exempt into the second round of the LIV Golf Promotions event, which awards contracts to the top three on the tournament’s leaderboard.
Below is the prize money payout for the Black Mountain Championship.
