Major championship venues: Future sites for the AIG Women's Open Championship

The AIG Women's Open Championship has been at the forefront of increased efforts throughout professional golf to make big-time tournament purses more equitable between the highest levels of both the men's and women's games. The 2021 championship awarded $5.8 million in prize money, with Anna Nordqvist taking home $870,000 for the win. From 2022 forward, presenting sponsor AIG and The R&A plan for the purse to be at least $6.8 million. A coalescing rota of prestigious host venues to rival that of The Open Championship will also help raise the prestige of this great event.
