How much did each golfer earn from the $20 million purse?

The conclusion of LIV Golf Virginia saw Joaquin Niemann win his fourth event on the Saudi-based tour this season. Niemann shot 15-under par after three rounds to finish ahead of veteran names like Anirban Lahiri, Bryson DeChambeau, and Phil Mickelson.

With his victory at the 2025 LIV Golf Virginia event, Niemann has not only won a trophy, but he will also take home a cash prize of $4,000,000 from the $20,000,000 purse. Graeme McDowell and Anirban Lahiri who finished T2 will earn $1,875,000 each.

On the other hand, Phil Mickelson and Bryson DeChambeau, who both tied for fourth place, will earn $775,000. Spanish professional golfer Jon Rahm also registered a top-10 finish at LIV Golf Virginia and will thus take home a handsome amount of money – $483,750.

While the above-mentioned figures are for individuals, LIV Golf also rewards teams. At the Virginia event, it was Bryson DeChambeau’s Crushers GC who ended up finishing in the top spot. This means Crushers GC will earn $3,000,000.

The DeChambeau-led team was closely followed by 4 Aces GC and Smash GC who finished second and third respectively. While 4 Aces GC will earn $1,500,000, Smash GC will get $500,000 for finishing third.
