An all-time high of $131 million in purse money will be up for grabs at 35 events as the LPGA Tour celebrates its 75th anniversary in 2025.
The 2025 funds mark an increase of more than $62 million since the 2021 season.
The non-major purse total for the 2025 season is more than $83 million, up from $45.8 million in 2021. Sixteen events have purses of at least $3 million.
“The 2024 season was another year of historic growth for the LPGA Tour, and with this 2025 schedule we will continue to improve on that growth,” LPGA Commissioner Mollie Marcoux Samaan said in a statement Wednesday.
“This schedule is highlighted by two exciting new events, a new multi-year title for the longest-running non-major tournament on the LPGA Tour, even higher purse sizes, increased benefits that will enhance the athlete experience, improved geographical flow and a longer offseason that will give our athletes a well-deserved rest after their tremendous work in 2024.”
The LPGA — the longest-running women’s professional sports organization — has a schedule that includes events in 14 states in the United States and 11 other countries. Of the 35 events, 33 of them are official LPGA Tour competitions.
Starting two weeks later than in past years, the season will have five majors and will feature two multi-event swings through Asia and one through Europe.
One new stop on the tour in 2025 will be the previously announced Black Desert Championship in Ivins, Utah. The tour also returns to Mexico for the Riviera Maya Open in Cancun. Both events take place in May.
