Danny Lee is already a winner in just his second LIV Golf League start.
The 32-year-old survived a three-hole, four-man playoff to win for the first time since 2015 on the PGA Tour at the 2023 LIV Golf Tucson event at Gallery Golf Club in Marana, Arizona. For his efforts, Lee will take home the top prize of $4 million, almost a quarter of his career earnings on the PGA Tour ($15,979,537).
The trio of runners-up – Louis Oosthuizen, Brendan Steele and Carlos Ortiz –will each take home $1,558,333. Charles Howell III, who at one point led during the final round, rounds out the top five and leaves with $975,000 for his efforts.
Check out how much each player and team earned at LIV Golf’s second event of its 2023 season.

LIV owns a 75 percent stake in each franchise and provided teams with an undisclosed amount of operating capital for the year. The teams are expected to largely run on their own dime this season, with team prize earnings going directly towards its day-to-day costs.
