The CME Group Tour Championship is the prestigious season-ending event on the LPGA Tour. It features a limited field of 60 top women's professional golfers competing for a significant title. The tournament, which has been held under its current name since 2014, succeeded earlier season finales known as the LPGA Tour Championship and the CME Group Titleholders.
This championship is notable as the culminating tournament of the LPGA season, often determining the year's top performers. It is distinguished by its exclusive, merit-based field and its role in concluding the annual professional golf calendar for women. The event carries substantial importance within the sport due to its position as the tour's finale.
Recently, the championship has been in the news due to the 2025 edition currently underway. Media coverage has focused on player performances, including notable shots by competitors like Minjee Lee and Lexi Thompson. Significant attention has also been given to the tournament's financial aspects, particularly the record $11 million total purse and the detailed breakdown of prize money payouts for players and their caddies.
