The Final Stop of the LPGA Tour's Asian Swing
As the LPGA Tour approaches the end of its season, attention is now focused on the TOTO Japan Classic, the final event of the Asian Swing this Fall. This prestigious tournament will take place at the Seta Golf Course in Shiga, offering players a chance to secure a significant title and valuable points in the Race To CME Globe.
With only two events remaining — The Annika and the CME Group Tour Championship — the pressure is on for players aiming to make the playoffs. Those who miss out on these opportunities may find themselves watching the $11 million closing tournament from the sidelines.
Before the season concludes, there is still a chance for golfers to claim another title and add to their earnings. The TOTO Japan Classic offers a prize fund of $2.1 million for 2025, which is an increase of $100,000 compared to the previous year. This makes it one of the more lucrative events on the schedule, especially given the no-cut format that allows all participants to compete through all four rounds.
Prize Money Breakdown
Winning the TOTO Japan Classic comes with a substantial reward. The champion will take home a cheque of $315,000, along with a generous number of Race To CME Globe points. The runner-up can expect to earn just under $200,000, while those finishing in third or fourth place will also receive six-figure payouts.
Even players who finish outside the top five can still walk away with a considerable amount. Ending inside the top-25 guarantees a payout of over $20,000, and those who finish in the top-50 are likely to receive nearly $7,500.
Below is the complete breakdown of the prize money for the 2025 TOTO Japan Classic:
