The LIV Golf League continues to make headlines regarding its long-term future, but for the time being there is a tournament to be played and another mind-boggling pile of cash to be won.

Whoever manages to win will take home the usual $4 million from a total purse of $20 million on the individual side. Second ($2.25 million), third ($1.5 million) and fourth ($1 million) can also scoop extraordinary amounts as well.
Due to LIV’s no-cut nature, each of the 57 pros involved will take home at least $50,000, with 46th and above earning over $126,000.
As it relates to the team purse, there is $10 million on the line. Players don’t directly receive any of this money, though, but they will take a share at the end of the season if their franchise is in profit. Team money goes towards developing the franchise as well as several other costs the roster might incur.
Then there is the $2.3 million bonus payout for one player on each of the top three teams at the end of the week. Team captains decide who takes home the payouts of $1 million, $800,000 and $500,000, with the leading scorer from each club most likely to benefit.
Below is the maximum prize money payout for each position in both the individual and team formats at LIV Golf Virginia before ties are taken into account.
