The LPGA is back in action this week and holding its final event prior to next week’s U.S. Women’s Open Championship. While Erin Hills will be all the rage this week, what is happening right now is worth mentioning.
LPGA returning to Mexico for first time in 8 years and doing so in historic fashion

We will see the LPGA playing at the 2025 MEXICO Riviera Maya Open at Mayakoba. This marks the LPGA’s first trip to Mexico after eight years away and interestingly the event is the first and only that has the brand “MEXICO” as the title sponsor.
Notables in the field will include past champions Sei Young Kim, Carlota Ciganda and Christina Kim. Charley Hull will also be in attendance. Clearly though the vent will be highlighted by the eight Mexican golfers in play:
- Maria Balcazar
- Maria Fassi
- Isabella Fierro
- Fernanda Lira
- Gaby Lopez
- Andrea Ostos
- Carolina Rotzinger
- Clarisa Temelo
Also in the field will be Sophia Popov who is coming off of an incredible Mother’s Day win in Arizona on the Epson Tour.
Mayakoba may sound familiar if you are a golf fan as the World Wide Technology Championship was long held at El Camaleón where this event will take place. LIV golf also held events on site in both 2023 and 2024.
The tournament can be seen on Golf Channel on Thursday and Friday (10am-12pm CT) as well as Saturday (2-5pm CT). Thursday and Friday have action after those windows on NBC Digital while Sunday’s final moments can be seen on CBS and Paramount+.
