Jeeno Thitikul dominated Sunday at the Mizuho Americas Open, capturing her fifth career LPGA title at Liberty National.
The Thai star and world No. 2 pocketed $450,000 for the victory, pushing her 2024 earnings past $1.1 million. She now sits second on this year’s money list, trailing only Chevron winner Mao Saigo. Thitikul’s financial success isn’t new territory – she claimed the tour’s money title last season after securing the massive $4 million first-place prize at the season finale.
Meanwhile, Nelly Korda’s search for her first win this season continues. The American star tied for fifth, earning $106,039 to bring her 2024 earnings to $576,743.
