The latest stop on the LPGA Tour season comes from Singapore’s Sentosa Golf Club with the HSBC Women’s World Championship.
The tournament marks the second of the Asian Swing, which began with the Honda LPGA Thailand, where Angel Yin claimed her second LPGA Tour win.
For that achievement, the American won $255,000 from an overall purse of $1.7m, but there is considerably more to play for this week with the largest payout of the LPGA Tour season so far.
In total, there is $2.4m on the table this week - $600,000 more than the 2024 edition. The winner is in line for a $360,000 first prize. That’s over $100,000 more than the winner of one of the world’s oldest golf tournaments, the DP World Tour’s Investec South African Open Championship, will claim this week.
The runner-up is also set for a significant payday of $229,913, with everyone finishing in the top five provisionally in line for earnings of six figures.
Below is the prize money payout for the HSBC Women’s World Championship.

Who Are The Star Names In The HSBC Women’s World Championship?
The HSBC Women’s World Championship is a limited-field, no-cut event which was won by Australian Hannah Green in 2024. She holed a 27-foot putt on the 18th to edge out Celine Boutier and win her fourth LPGA Tour title.
Since then, she has won twice more on the circuit, so she will be confident heading into the defence of her title. Boutier also plays, hoping to go one better than last year’s close call.
The pair are far from the only big names competing at the tournament. Former champions in the field include Jin Young Ko, who won in 2022 and 2023. Hyo Joo Kim, who was the 2021 champion, also plays, along with 2019 winner Sun Hyun Park.
Jeeno Thitikul, who continued some fine form with victory in the PIF Saudi Ladies International earlier in the month, is also playing, along with fellow stars including Ruoning Yin, Lydia Ko, Lilia Vu, Yuka Saso, Minjee Lee and Charley Hull.
