Overview
- The tournament purse for 2026 is reported at $9.1 million with a winner’s payout of $1,365,000, placing Evian among the richest events on the women’s calendar.
- The champion will earn 650 Race to CME Global points, Rolex Women’s World Golf Ranking points and a two-year LPGA Tour exemption, which affect qualification and seeding for the season-ending CME Group Tour Championship.
- World No. 4 Lottie Woad led the field during second-round coverage with Akie Iwai close behind as contenders jostled for the major title.
- World No. 1 Nelly Korda failed to make the cut, finishing tied for 67th and ending a 34-consecutive-cuts-made streak despite a 2026 season that included four wins.
- The Evian event has grown from the Evian Masters with a $265,000 purse to major status and then expanded further under Amundi sponsorship, a trajectory that has driven rising payouts and stronger season incentives for players.
