It is no secret that the LIV Golf Series is a lucrative affair. After all, it is bankrolled by Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund, one of the world’s largest sovereign wealth funds.
As anticipation grew ahead of the inaugural event at Centurion Club in June, Dustin Johnson was unveiled as one of the marquee acquisitions and named captain of the 4 Aces franchise. After just six events, the American has been the standout performer of the Series and already crowned the Individual Champion – but exactly how much money has he won?
Across the six events, the two-time Major champion has collected a victory in Boston and four other top-10 finishes. His worst performance was a T15 in Bangkok. The 4 Aces team have collectively notched four victories and are yet to finish outside the top-6.
Put all that together and that means Johnson has earned $9,758,600 across the six individual events, a further $3m for his team’s performances and an additional $18m bonus for being the Individual Champion – taking his total earnings to $30,758,600.
By way of comparison, the 38-year-old has made more money from six LIV Golf events than in any other full season during his 15-year PGA Tour career and may well eclipse it next year in LIV’s expanded $405m 14-tournament League.
