Ko Wins Richest Prize In Women’s Golf
CME GROUP TOUR CHAMPIONSHIP

New Zealand’s Lydia Ko has won the biggest winner’s check in the history of women’s golf after her wire-to-wire victory in the season-finale CME Group Tour Championship. Ko, who is now a 19-time LPGA champion, shot a 2-under 70 on Sunday to finish at -17 overall and two strokes ahead of thirdround co-leader Leona Maguire. With her win, the Kiwi also clinched the 2022 Player of the Year award for the second time in her career and back-to-back Vare Trophies for the player with the season’s lowest scoring average.

Ko, who also won the tournament in 2014, pocketed the record $2 million prize for victory at Tiburon Golf Club in Naples Florida with her two-under round of 70 in blustery conditions.
