⛳️ $4.5M → $9.75M: A Case Study in Vision

Since 2019, the prize fund has more than doubled—up 117% to $9.75M.

Yesterday, Miyū Yamash*ta walked away with a record-breaking $1.46M cheque—the largest in the championship’s history.

But this isn’t just about a bigger purse.
It’s a signal to brands:

🚀 The women’s game isn’t ‘emerging’—it’s undeniable.
💬 Visibility in women’s sport is no longer optional—it’s influential.
🧠 Golf is a business accelerator.

Smart brands aren’t just watching the shift—they’re driving it.
