2025 U.S. Women's Open payouts: How much each player earned from the $12 million purse

Maja Stark has been crowned as the winner of the 2025 U.S. Women's Open. The Swedish golfer totalled 7 under par for the week at Erin Hills to earn a whopping $2.4 million for her brilliant performance.

Nelly Korda and Rio Takeda finished two strokes short of Stark. Settling for a joint second-place finish at the 2025 U.S. Women's Open, both the world-class golfers earned $1,052,621 each.

Charley Hull tied for 12th place at the 2025 U.S. Women's Open along with Hannah Green. The LPGA Tour stars earned paychecks worth $229,197.60 for a total 1 under par score.

With 6 amateurs in the field, Lottie Woad earned low amateur honors with a tied 31st place finish. Despite making the cut at the 2025 U.S. Women's Open, none of the six amateurs will receive monetary awards due to their amateur status.
