Women's British Open Golf 2023: Tee Times, Dates, TV Schedule, LPGA Prize Money | News, Scores, High

It may not be the biggest purse in women's golf—that distinction belongs to the U.S. Women's Open—but the AIG Women's Open prize money has grown significantly in recent years.

For 2023, the tournament boasts a minimum purse of $7.3 million, with The R&A to confirm the exact prize fund sometime Wednesday. That's at least as much as 2022, which represented a 26 percent jump over 2021's purse of $5.8 million. Last year's champion, Ashleigh Buhai, received $1.095 million.

With AIG having extended its title sponsorship of the Women's Open through 2025, we can expect to see the purse continue to grow.

As for the women who might contend for a large share of that purse this year, let's break down some of the favorites when play gets underway at Walton Heath Golf Club.
