Allisen Corpuz almost tripled her career winnings by pocketing $2 million for her victory in the first U.S. Women’s Open held at the iconic Pebble Beach Golf Links. It is the largest payout in women’s golf history.

Corpuz, a Hawaii native in her second full season on the LPGA Tour, finished three strokes better than Charley Hull and Jiyai Shin at 9-under par.

The 25-year-old Corpuz entered the week with $1.2 million in winnings over the past two seasons. She had collected $188,000 in March by tying for fourth place at the season’s first women’s major, The Chevron Championship, where she had been tied for the lead entering the final round.

This time, Corpuz closed with a 3-under 69, making six birdies during the final round in becoming the first women’s champion at Pebble Beach. Men’s U.S. Open winners at one of golf’s most storied venues include Jack Nicklaus (1972), Tom Watson (1982), Tom Kite (1992), Tiger Woods (2000), Graeme McDowell (2010) and, most recently, Gary Woodland in 2019.

The USGA boosted the total prize money for the U.S. Women’s Open to a record $11 million this year. Hull and Shin each received nearly $1 million in tying for second place, collecting $974,572 apiece. Hull shot a final-round 66 while Shin closed with a 68 that included a birdie at the 18th hole.

While the win is the first of Corpuz’s professional career, she’s been an accomplished player at every level. In 2008, she surpassed fellow Hawaii native Michelle Wie West as the youngest U.S. Women’s Amateur Public Links qualifier at just three months after her 10th birthday. She was also a two-time All-American at the University of Southern California, winning three collegiate tournaments, and went 3-0-0 as a member of the winning U.S. Curtis Cup team in 2021.
