How much did Ashleigh Buhai and Adrian Meronk win at the ISPS HANDA Australian Open? Prize money payouts explored

Adrian Meronk and Ashleigh Buhai won the 105th edition of the ISPS Handa Australian Open, which had its final on Sunday, December 4.

The Australian Open returned after two years of cancelation, with equal purses for the men's and women's categories. The 2022 edition of the championship purse was AUD 3.4 million, equally divided between the two standings. A total of 288 golfers participated, including 156 male and 108 female players.

On Sunday, Adrian Meronk won the men's event and was awarded €187,251.77 in prize money, while Ashleigh Buhai received AUD 274,550.

In the final, the Aussie golfer Adam Scott was in the lead at the beginning, but after the fourth round, his 2-over 72 shot was not enough to beat the Poland champ, who shot a closing 66 and won the championship.

Noticeably, the men's and women's championships were conducted concurrently on two golf courses with equal purses and unequal participants.
