A $4 million first-place prize goes a long way toward winning a money title.
Jeeno Thitikul delivered a knock-out punch Sunday at the 2024 CME Group Tour Championship, going eagle-birdie on Nos. 17 and 18 to win the LPGA’s season finale by a shot.
In the process, she banked a cool $4 million, the biggest prize on the circuit.
Going into the week, whoever won the CME was likely going to be the season-long money champ, based on that huge payday.
Thitikul’s win left the LPGA’s seven-time winner in 2024 in second place in money, but Nelly Korda still banked more than $4 million this season.
Of note: everyone who finished in the top 10 surpassed the $2 million mark.
Here’s a closer look at the top 10 in 2024. You can see the entire LPGA list here.
