The stakes are extremely high at this week’s Link Hong Kong Open. Not only is there a big winner’s check on the line in this latest International Series tournament, but the champion will also seal his path into two Majors next year.
As a result of the precious opportunity and the difficult of forging a route via the LIV Golf League due to a lack of OWGR points, over 30 players from the PIF-backed circuit began the Hong Kong Open desperately attempting to make their dreams come true.

Defending champion Patrick Reed was one of them, although the defending champion has a place at The Masters for life after winning in 2018. Reed does not have a place at The Open, however, after missing the cut at Royal Portrush.
Although the ultimate prize of Major starts may well be the key driving force for those in the final group on Sunday, everyone who makes the cut will still be able to enjoy the consolation prize of a healthy financial payout from a total pot of $2 million.

As is the case in each of the Asian Tour’s elevated tournaments this season, the Hong Kong Open champion will earn $360,000.
The runner-up is in line to collect around $220,000 while third and fourth could still bank in excess of six figures if they can separate themselves from the rest of the chasing pack.
The remainder of the top-10 can expect at least $35,000 while everyone who plays the weekend should scoop over $3,000.
Below is the full prize money breakdown at the 2025 Hong Kong Open, with the maximum payout per position listed based on 75 players making the cut at Hong Kong Golf Club.
