The LPGA announced this week the winner of next year's CME Group Tour Championship will earn $2 million, the largest single prize in the history of women’s golf. Every player in the season-ending event will receive at least $40K from a total prize pool of $7 million. That's an increase of $2 million from this year's event, which continues this weekend at Tiburon in Naples, Florida.
