Set to run Thursday through Sunday at Hazeltine National Golf Club in Chaska, Minn., the 2026 KPMG Women's PGA Championship will feature a record-setting purse of $13 million, the largest purse in women's golf history.
The 156-player field boasts each of the top 100 players in the current Race to the CME Globe rankings, headlined by World No. 1 Nelly Korda and defending tournament champion Minjee Lee of Australia.
"The KPMG Women's PGA Championship continues to raise the bar for women's golf," LPGA
commissioner Craig Kessler said in a statement. "Record purse increases, enhanced broadcast coverage, and one of the strongest fields of the year makes this tournament a can't-miss event for fans."
This year's tournament also showcases several technological enhancements that provide deeper insights into individual performances for competitors and fans alike. The KPMG Performance Insights technologies include AI-powered player reels and a live-outcome prediction engine, among other products.
KPMG CHAMPCAST will provide 3D imagery, radar data, shot trails, green views and individual shot video highlights to heighten the broadcast as well.
The four-day tournament will be broadcast on NBC, Golf Channel and Peacock, and include nearly 100 hours of live, streaming and ancillary coverage.
"Together with KPMG and the LPGA Tour, we are excited to once again present a world-class experience at the KPMG Women's PGA Championship," PGA of America CEO Terry Clark said in a statement. "This Championship is a testament to our continued investment in growing the women's game, setting new standards with a record purse, innovative technology enhancements and comprehensive broadcast coverage. We look forward to seeing 156 of the world's best players compete."
This marks the second year Hazeltine will host the KPMG Women's PGA Championship after it previously welcomed the event in 2019. Hazeltine has also staged two PGA Championships (2002, 2009) and the Ryder Cup (2016), which will return in 2029.
