Chevron Championship Prize Money Payout 2025

The first of five women's Majors over the coming months sees the Chevron Championship take place at The Club at Carlton Woods in Texas for the third successive year.

Like any Major, there are many perks or winning the title, including hosting the Champions Dinner the following year and exemptions into the other four Majors. Another is some of the biggest prize money on offer in the women's game.

The 2024 edition offered a record prize fund of $7.9m, and that increases to $8m this year. That’s a big jump since Chevron became involved in 2021, too. Back then, the overall purse was $3.1m.

For the second year in a row, the winner will receive a $1.2m payout. It’s not just players who made the cut who will benefit from some financial reward, either. Those missing out on the weekend, which included some big names, will each be paid $10,000.

Aside from the prize money, other incentives include 650 Race To CME Globe points for the winner and 100 world ranking points.

Below is the prize money payout for the Chevron Championship.

Who Are The Star Names In The Chevron Championship?

Inevitably, most of the world's best players are in the field, all hoping to get their hands on the Dinah Shore trophy. Nelly Korda won the 2024 tournament when she beat Maja Stark by two, and both players made it through to the weekend this year.

The player Korda succeeded as champion was Lilia Vu. She withdrew from last year's tournament with a back injury, but she is safely into the final two rounds in 2025.

Several other Chevron Champions have made the cut, including Jin Young Ko and Lydia Ko, who began the tournament hoping to add to her haul of Major titles after claiming her third at last year's AIG Women's Open.

Another former winner in the field is Lexi Thompson, who took the title in 2014 when it was named the Kraft Nabisco Championship. She was still in contention for the title heading into the weekend, standing T10 on the leaderboard.

As well as Korda and Lydia Ko, the three other Major winners from last year started the tournament - KPMG Women's PGA Champion Amy Yang, US Women's Open winner Yuka Saso and Amundi Evian Champion Ayaka Furue, although Saso failed to make it to Moving Day.

At the top of the leaderboard with two rounds to play was Yan Liu on seven-under, with Lindy Duncan, Mao Saigo, Sarah Schmelzel and Hyo Joo Kim all one behind.
