The 2023 LPGA Tour was the 74th edition of the
Hilton Grand Vacations Tournament of Champions, in Orlando, Florida on January 19, and officially ended on November 19, at the Tiburón Golf Club in the CME Group Tour Championship at Naples, Florida, not counting the unofficial December 10 Grant Thornton Invitational.[1] The tournaments were sanctioned by the United States-based Ladies Professional Golf Association
(LPGA).
Schedule and results
The number in parentheses after each winners' name is the player's total number of wins in official money individual events on the LPGA Tour, including that event. Tournament and winner names in bold indicate
LPGA majors. The schedule and purse amount for each tournament is listed on the LPGA website.[2] The LPGA has a standard formula for payout percentages and distribution of its purse and prize money for every event. The winner typically gets 15% of the total, second place gets 9.3%, third place 6.75%, etc.[3]
The total prize money to be won increases to $99.3 million for the 34 now scheduled to be played, $5.4 million more than the $93.9 million in
USGA increased the U.S. Women's Open payout to $11 million, from $10 million (with eventual goal of equal purse with the men) with the winner's share $2 million. This increases the season total to $102.35 million.[7]
