Charles Howell III earned $42,025,458 during a PGA Tour career that spanned more than 20 years and 609 starts.
After just a handful of LIV Golf events, he’s already a sixth of the way there.
The 43-year-old won the 2023 LIV Golf season opener at Mayakoba’s El Camaleon Golf Course on Mexico’s Riviera Maya on Sunday at 16 under to earn the top prize of $4 million. Howell earned $2,991,000 over six starts last year and now has earned just under $7 million on the upstart circuit led by Greg Norman and financially backed by Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund.
Runner-up Peter Uihlein (12 under) will take home $2.125 million, with Branden Grace (10 under) earning $1.5 million in third. Even fourth-place Paul Casey (7 under) cleared $1.05 million for his efforts.
