Hot on the heels of last week's Black Mountain Championship comes the International Series Thailand at Thai Country Club in Bangkok, the sixth of the Asian Tour's elevated events.
Like the previous five events this year, the prize money payout is $2m. Last week, World No.861 defeated John Catlin to claim the $360,000 top prize, and this week's winner will bank the same figure. Meanwhile, the runner-up is set for a $220,000 payout.
There is more at stake than prize money this week. As with the other International Series events, players are competing knowing there's the potentially life-changing prize of a LIV Golf contract for the player at the top of the rankings after the last of its 10 tournaments.
Meanwhile, even those who finish between second and eighth will win an exemption 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 International Series Thailand.

Who Are The Star Names In The International Series Thailand?
Mac Boucher is one of two golf influencers competing
In last week's event, golf influencers Luke Kwon and Tae-Wook Koh, aka Taco Golf, were in the field, with Kwon making the cut, and he returns this week, along with another social media star, Mac Boucher. The Canadian is famous for his extraordinary trick-shot routines, while he also played in the Creator Classic before the Tour Championship, finishing 15th of the 16 competing.
Luke Kwon plays in his second successive International Series tournament
Like the Black Mountain Championship, a strong LIV Golf contingent is also playing, including reserve Wade Ormsby, who won the event in 2023.
Another LIV Golf reserve in the field is John Catlin, who is top of the Asian Tour's Order of Merit and the International Series Rankings. He edged even closer to full-time LIV Golf contract last week, despite losing to Michael 'MJ' Maguire in a playoff. Last week's winner also plays.
Other LIV golfers competing include Sam Horsfield, Danny Lee, Peter Uihlein and Jinichiro Kozuma, while three who finished in the Drop Zone and face a battle to save their careers on the circuit, Branden Grace and brothers Kieran and Scott Vincent, play too.
Former Ripper GC player Jediah Morgan, who is no longer with LIV Golf, is also in the field.
What Is The International Series?
The International Series is a LIV Golf-backed group of 10 elevated events taking place during the Asian Tour season. As well as increased prize money, the series offers a pathway to the big-money circuit.
