Every professional golfer aspires to winning a Major title, it’s the ultimate accolade and marks a significant milestone in a player’s career. The world's best female players have five opportunities in 2025 to claim a coveted title and put their name in the history books. Here are the details of when and where the women’s Majors take place

24-27 April - The Chevron Championship, The Club at Carlton Woods, Texas

The first women’s Major of the year is held at The Club at Carlton Woods. Nelly Korda collected her fifth straight LPGA Tour victory in 2024, winning by two shots over Maja Stark, and joining Nancy Lopez and Annika Sorenstam as the only other players since 1978 to win five consecutive titles.

It is the third time the event will be played at Carlton Woods, which moved from Mission Hills Country Club. This Major was renowned for the winner’s celebratory leap into Poppie’s Pond and Korda made sure to continue the longtime-tradition at Carlton Woods by jumping off the dock into the lake just off the 18th green.

29 May-1 June - US Women’s Open, Erin Hills, Wisconsin

The 2025 US Women’s Open will be staged at Erin Hills, host venue of the men’s at US Open in 2017 when Brooks Koepka won his first of five Major titles.

In 2024, Yuka Saso became the first player in USGA history to win the US Women’s Open on multiple occasions and for two different countries. When Saaso claimed her first title in 2021, she was representing the Philippines, the country of her mother, but a few months later she switched allegiances to Japan, the country of her father. Fellow Japanese player Hinako Shibuno finished second and this was the first time in any Major championship – for men or women – that Japanese players went 1-2.

19-22 June - KPMG Women’s PGA Championship, PGA Frisco, Texas

The KPMG Women’s PGA Championship has changed venue every year since 2015, other than in 2024 when it returned to Sahalee Country Club in Washington. This year the championship makes its inaugural visit to Texas and the PGA Frisco.

In her 75th Major start, 34-year-old Amy Yang from South Korea claimed her first title by three shots from two two-time Major champion Jin Young Ko, Miyu Yamashita and Lilia Vu. This was the longest wait for a maiden Major victory since Angela Stanford won the 2018 Evian Championship in her 76th start.

10-13 July - Amundi Evian Championship - Evian Resort Golf Club, France

Named after the tournament’s host course, the Evian Resort in Evian-Les-Bains, France, this relatively new women’s Major is organised and run by the Ladies European Tour.

It is arguably one of the most dramatic of the Major venues. The average elevation of the course is approximately 480 metres (1,575 ft) above sea level with spectacular views overlooking nearby Lake Geneva. In 2024, Japan’s Ayaka Furue won her first Major championship by a single shot when she holed an impressive eagle putt from 15 feet on the final green to scoop the US $1.2 million first prize.

31 July-3 August - AIG Women’s Open, Royal Porthcawl, Wales

The 49th edition of the AIG Women’s Open will be staged at Royal Porthcawl and it will be the first time the Championship will have been held in Wales. It is a stunning coastline course where the sea is visible from every hole.

In 2024, at the iconic Old Course, St Andrews, Lydia Ko secured her third Major title. A crucial birdie on the 18th was enough to secure victory by two shots from defending Champion Lilia Vu, Nelly Korda, Jiyai Shin and Ruoning Yin.
