The 2023 LIV Golf Chicago purse is set for $25 million, with the winner's share coming in at $4,000,000 -- the standard 20 percent payout according to the LIV Golf's prize money distribution chart.

The LIV Golf Chicago field is headed by Cameron Smith, Dustin Johnson, Brooks Koepka, Bryson DeChambeau and more.

The 48-player field is the 12th event in the 14-event LIV Golf League.

A cut is not made after 36 holes, and the tournament is just 54 holes compared to a standard 72. All players who finish three rounds of the tournament will earn money from the $20 million individual portion of the prize pool. The top three teams in the 12-team concurrent format will split $5 million, with $3 million to first, $1.5 million to second and $500,000 to third going to the teams rather than the individual players.

The event is played this year at Rich Harvest Farms in Sugar Grove, Ill.

There are no Official World Golf Ranking points available to competitors.
