Can a win in Thailand propel Peter Uihlein into the lucrative world of LIV Golf?

Following last week’s Black Mountain Championship, the International Series Thailand kicks off at Thai Country Club in Bangkok. This marks the sixth elevated event on the Asian Tour. The event kick-started on October 24 and concludes in just a few hours, as the players finish teeing off the last 18 holes.

Currently, LIV Golf’s Peter Uihlein has taken the lead, having completed sixteen holes, going completely bogey-free through them. He is still left to putt on the last two holes and is at a 21-under. Richard T. Lee, on the other hand, has completed his final round and is one stroke away from the LIV Golf star. But the question is, if Uihlein manages to grab the win, what will he take home?

How much money will Peter Uihlein take home if he wins the 2024 International Series Thailand?

Just like the rest of the five events that have already concluded this year, the 2024 International Series Thailand boasts a purse of $2 million. According to Golf Monthly, if Peter Uihlein wins the trophy as the final round concludes, he stands to gain the most as he could accrue the largest amount of share from the total payout, which is $360,000. On the other hand, the runner-up and the second runner-up will take home $220,000 and $126,000, respectively. 

After the Friday round, only 68 out of the 150 players in the field of the event made the cut and qualified for the weekend rounds. All the players having made the cut will get some portion of the share, with the player ranked at the bottom of the leaderboard getting the smallest portion of it. Whoever lands in the 68th position will take home only $4,800. Here is what the final payout looks like at the 2024 International Series Thailand.

There is a lot more at stake for the players finishing in the top 10 apart from the prize money. Especially for the winner.
