The 2026 Mizuho Americas Open delivered a thrilling week of golf, and no one shined brighter than Jeeno Thitikul. With her ninth LPGA victory, Thitikul not only claimed the $487,500 winner's check but also set a new earnings record—becoming the fastest player in tour history to cross the $18 million career earnings mark. This milestone extends her streak as the quickest to reach every $1 million tier from $8 million onward.
Thitikul's win at Liberty National caps off a stellar season that already includes a victory on home soil at the Honda LPGA Thailand. With nearly $1 million earned in just two wins this year, the 23-year-old is proving she's one of the most dominant forces on the LPGA Tour.
Beyond the on-course drama, tournament host Michelle Wie West ensured the player experience was top-notch. Thanks to sponsor Mizuho, players enjoyed complimentary rooms for the week, while Ford provided free transportation. The hospitality extended to thoughtful gifts: each player received $250 gift cards to Delta and Starbucks, while LPGA moms were surprised with $1,000 Starbucks gift cards. "All moms need caffeine," Wie West quipped.
The total purse of $3.25 million was distributed among the field, with the top finishers taking home significant paydays. Here's the full breakdown of prize money for every LPGA player at the 2026 Mizuho Americas Open.
