LPGA and Chevron to Elevate, Extend Major Relationship
Chevron Championship is one of the five major championships of professional women’s golf hosted at the Mission Hills Country Club in Rancho Mirage, California.
www.thechevronchampionship.comHere’s the latest I can share about the Chevron Championship (LPGA’s Chevron major):
- The Chevron Championship is LPGA’s first major of the season and has been tied to Chevron as its title sponsor through 2029, with the purse raised to a notable level in 2024 and beyond. This reflects a broader commitment to elevating prize money and opportunities for players on the LPGA Tour [source: LPGA/Chevron partnership extension press materials from 2024].[1][2]
- In 2024, The Chevron Championship purse increased to $7.9 million, and the event announced extensions of the title sponsorship through 2029, along with a higher missed-cut stipend for players who don’t advance (up to $10,000) to help cover weekly expenses.[2][1]
- Coverage and updates for The Chevron Championship—including results, player features, and initiatives—are routinely published by LPGA (the official tournament page and LPGA Now channels), and major milestones are often highlighted in Golf Channel/Golf Today segments when new sponsorship developments or prize updates are announced.[3][4][5]
If you’d like, I can pull the most recent headlines and summarize who won the latest Chevron Championship, prize amounts, and any new sponsor announcements for 2026–2027. I can also set up a quick digest of LPGA Chevron coverage from the LPGA site and major golf outlets. Would you like me to do that?
