How Much Josele Ballester Won At The PIF Saudi International

The Asian Tour's International Series concluded with its biggest event, the PIF Saudi International at Riyadh Golf Club.

In the end, a bogey-free final round of 65 was enough for LIV Golfer Josele Ballester to win his first professional title, finishing three shots ahead of Caleb Surratt.

As well as his name being added to the list of winners of the Asian Tour's most prestigious event, he also won some big money, but how much?

The tournament had a purse of $5m - comfortably the most on the Asian Tour this season. The winner was guaranteed 20% of that total, giving the young Spaniard a $1m payout.

It's not just Ballester who heads away from the event significantly wealthier.

Surratt, who was also looking for his maiden professional win, will be disappointed not to be the man who succeeded Joaquin Niemann as champion, but his bank balance has still been boosted by $525,000.

Meanwhile, everyone else in the top 10 also claimed six-figure paydays. Dean Burmester, who finished third, claimed $300,000, with Richard Bland in fourth banking $235,000.

More LIV Golfers finished T5, including Tyrrell Hatton and Branden Grace, and they boosted their coffers by $136,583.

Below is what each player won at the PIF Saudi International.
