Walmart NW Arkansas Championship Winner Set for $450,000

Yuna Nishimura carried a five-shot lead into the final round of the Walmart NW Arkansas Championship on Sunday at Pinnacle Country Club in Rogers, Arkansas, chasing her first LPGA Tour title. Unlike in 2025, when bad weather limited the event to 18 holes, this year's tournament reached its final round on schedule.

How much does the winner earn?

The tournament, now in its 20th year, carries a $3 million purse, unchanged since it was raised to that level in 2024. The champion will collect $450,000, matching what Jasmine Suwannapura earned for last year's playoff win. The runner-up is in line for just under $300,000, and any player finishing in the top six is guaranteed at least a six-figure payout before deductions.

Money isn't the only thing at stake. Points toward the Race to the CME Globe are also on the line as players push toward the LPGA Tour's season-ending playoffs.

Entering the final round, Nishimura led Auston Kim, Mary Liu and Michelle Zhang by five shots in a field that made the cut at 65 players.
