Schedule and results

The number in parentheses after each winners' name is the player's total number of wins in official money individual events on the LPGA Tour, including that event. Tournament and winner names in bold indicate LPGA majors. The schedule and purse amount for each tournament is listed on the LPGA website.^[2] The LPGA has a standard formula for payout percentages and distribution of its purse and prize money for every event. The winner typically gets 15% of the total, second place gets 9.3%, third place 6.75%, etc.^[3]

The total prize money to be won increases to $99.3 million for the 34 now scheduled to be played, $5.4 million more than the $93.9 million in 2022.^[1][4] The net $800,000 increase from the cancellation of the $2.2 million Taiwan Swinging Skirts LPGA to the new $3.0 million Maybank Championship, makes the total purse $100.1 million for 2023. Kroger Queen City Championship (Sep. 10) increased its purse from $1.75 million to $2 million^[5] making the total purse now $100.35 million. On June 25, the KPMG Women's PGA Championship announced its purse would increase to $10 million from $9 million and the winner paid $1.5 million, making the total for the season $101.35 million.^[6] On July 5, the USGA increased the U.S. Women's Open payout to $11 million, from $10 million (with eventual goal of equal purse with the men) with the winner's share $2 million. This increases the season total to $102.35 million.^[7]
