Everything you need to know about the LPGA’s fifth and final major

The GIST: Time flies when you’re hitting fairways — just ask the LPGA’s best, who are preparing to tee off at the fifth and final major of the season tomorrow. Here’s everything you need to know about the AIG Women’s Open. *golf claps*

🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 The women’s sports history: For the first time ever, the Women’s Open heads to Wales, marking the largest women’s sporting event held in the country to date.

• As if you needed another reason to tune in tomorrow, every single hole at the Royal Porthcawl Golf Club has a picturesque view of the Bristol Channel. Smashed ceilings, stunning scenery, and top-tier golf? Yes, please.

🏆 The shockingly fierce field: Will the LPGA finally have a repeat winner this season? Reigning champ and world No. 3 Lydia Ko sure hopes so. She last bagged a Tour win in March and is back to defend her Open title, with hopes of becoming 2025’s first two-time champ.

• Yes, you read that right: A different player has won each of this season’s 20 events, and last year’s winningest golfer, world No. 1 Nelly Korda, isn’t one of them...yet.

• Both Shooter McGavin’s doctor Korda and Ko are among the favorites to hoist the trophy on Sunday (and cut the biggest piece of the $9.5M pie), but this field is star-studded, from all four 2025 major winners to the UK’s own Lottie Woad. Prepare for a parity par-tee.
