The first LIV Golf event of 2026 is in the books, and like always there was plenty of prize money up for grabs.
Elvis Smylie won in his LIV debut and will move inside the top 100 in the world with the victory after the Official World Golf Ranking awarded LIV Golf world ranking points earlier this week. He also takes home $4 million in prize money from a $20 million purse.
Team prize money doubled this season, and every team took home a check from Riyadh. Ripper GC took home the top prize of $3 million from the $10 million team purse.
Here's how much money each LIV Golf player and team earned this week in Saudi Arabia:
