The LPGA Tour heads to Las Vegas and the renowned Shadow Creek Golf Club, which has the world’s most expensive green fee, for the T-Mobile Match Play.

Overall, a field of 64 will compete for the title. The players will be divided into 16 groups of four. The first three days of action feature round-robin matches with the top player in each group at the phase’s conclusion progressing to the weekend.

There will then be a knockout format featuring single-elimiation matches before the final two go head-to-head on Sunday.

That’s a change to the 2024 contest, which saw a field of 96 compete in a combined strokeplay and match play contest. On that occasion, Nelly Korda continued an incredible season with her fourth successive LPGA Tour victory with a 4&3 win over Leona Maguire.

That handed her a winner’s check of $300,000 from an overall purse of $2m and players are competing for an identical sum this year.

Below is the prize money payout for the T-Mobile Match Play at Shadow Creek Golf Club.

Who Are The Star Names In The T-Mobile Match Play?

Nelly Korda defends her title, while the player she beat in 2024, Leona Maguire, is also in the field. They are far from the only world-class players competing, though.

Jeeno Thitijul is another teeing it up, while 23-time LPGA Tour winner Lydia Ko is also playing. Other players riding high in the world rankings competing in Las Vegas include Haeran Ryu, Ruoning Yin, Ayaka Furue and Jin Young Ko.

Two-time US Women’s Open champion Yuka Saso, Celine Boutier, who won the 2023 Amundi Evian Championship, and multiple Major winner Brooke Henderson are other high-profile players in the field, along with the likes of Rose Zhang, Charley Hull and Angel Yin. Pajaree Anannarukarn, who won the contest in 2023, also plays.

What Is The Purse For The T-Mobile Match Play?

Like the 2024 edition, there is a $2m purse for the T-Mobile Match Play. In 2024, Nelly Korda claimed a check for $300,000 for her win, and this week’s champion will secure an identical sum.

Where Is The T-Mobile Match Play?

The T-Mobile Match Play is held in Las Vegas at Shadow Creek Golf Club, which has the world’s most expensive green fee. It was also the host venue for The Showdown in December, which saw PGA Tour players Rory McIlroy and Scottie Scheffler beat LIV golfers Bryson DeChambeau and Brooks Koepka.
