Walking on the Tiburón Gold Course, Amy Rogers asked Jeeno Thitikul what the best thing was about winning the 2024 CME Group Tour Championship? She jokingly replied, “$4 million check!” The two of them laughed it off. But after another triumph in the event this season, Thitikul made a huge record.

Before her win in Naples, Florida, Thitikul had $13,369,400 in career earnings. That placed her 19th on the overall career earnings in the history of the LPGA Tour. However, after winning the 2025 CME Group Tour Championship, Thitikul jumped up 12 spots to the 7th with $17,369,400 in career earnings, according to the LPGA Tour website.
After her big jump, she also surpassed two big names on the LPGA Tour. The Thai pro crossed Lexi Thompson, who has earned $15,498,227 so far in her career. She moved from 9th to 10th in the rankings. Thitikul also ran past Nelly Korda, who has earned $16,109,558 so far. She was sitting in 8th, but has gotten pushed to the 9th spot now.

Korda needed 162 events to earn the $16.1 million, while Thompson took 271 events to make $15.498 million. However, what’s impressive about Thitikul’s run is that she has only taken 84 tournaments to surpass both women. And she’s only 22 still, while Korda is 27 and Thompson is 30 years old. This is the second blow Thitikul has delivered to the former world #1 after stealing her world ranking.
Judging by the numbers, it clearly seems like Jeeno Thitikul has consistency, age, and fortune by her side. If she continues her amazing run, then she might even go past Annika Sorenstam, who has earned $22,583,693. Although by the time Thitikul reaches there, Lydia Ko would have taken over the spot as she’s at $21,316,768 already.

Jeeno Thitikul is rewriting the history of women’s golf
Winning a lot of money is always a good record to register for any pro golfer. But Jeeno Thitikul did much more than just make bank in 2025. After capturing the 2025 CME Group Tour Championship, she was also awarded the Rolex Player of the Year.
Moreover, Thitikul also registered a unique record that no other woman had achieved. She won the Vare Trophy for securing the lowest scoring average of the season. But in reality, she had actually recorded the lowest seasonal scoring average in the history of the LPGA Tour. Thitikul averaged 68.681 in 2025. The previous record was held by Annika Sorenstam of 68.697 in November 2002. Interestingly, Jeeeno Thitikul was born on February 20, 2003.
She also had the most title wins for the season, the best stats in strokes gained, most birdies, bogey avoidance, par-3 scoring average, par-4 scoring average, and putts per GIR. So it doesn’t come as a surprise that she won three titles, finished as the runner-up four times, and had seven more top-10 finishes this season. Jeeno Thitikul was truly unbeatable in 2025.
