US Women’s Open prize up

The winner of this week’s US Women’s Open will receive a record US$1 million as part of a boost in prize money that will also see next month’s US Open solidify its status as golf’s richest major, organizers said on Tuesday. The United States Golf Association said in a statement prize money for the 119th US Open at Pebble Beach and the 74th US Women’s Open at Charleston had each been increased by US$500,000. It means the US Women’s Open purse will total US$5.5 million. The US$1-million winner’s check on offer in Charleston this week will be the richest payout in women’s golf. The US Open, meanwhile, which takes place at Pebble Beach on June 13-16, will see its total purse increase to US$12.5 million.
