Japan’s Ayaka Furue came into the 2022 LPGA season with some lofty expectations. The 22-year-old had won seven times previously on the pro circuit in her home country and finished seventh in LPGA Q Series to earn qualify for her rookie season in the US. While finishing second at the Bank of Hope LPGA Match Play, and making 13 cuts in 14 stroke-play starts, her best showing to date, however, was only a T-17.

That changed on Sunday when Furue shot a blistering 10-under 62 at the Dundonald Links. It pushed her past Lydia Ko and Celine Boutier to claim the title at the Trust Golf Women’s Scottish Open. With the victory, Furue won the first-place prize money payout of $300,000 from an overall purse of $2 million. That almost doubled her season/career earnings ($377,285).

Furue joins Atthaya Thitikul as the only other rookie to win on tour in 2022 and the fifth first-time winner, joining Jennifer Kupcho, Nana Koerstz Madsen and Leona Maguire.

Here’s the prize money payout for each golfer who made the cut in the tournament.
