Minjee Lee became the third Australian to win three major championships – joining Karrie Webb and Jan Stephenson – when she overcame demanding conditions at Fields Ranch East to win the 2025 KPMG Women’s PGA Championship. The Aussie now owns 11 LPGA titles, including three different majors. It marked her first victory since the fall of 2023. Lee’s resurgence of late can be traced back to a major equipment change when she put the long putter in play at the start of the 2023 season.

FRISCO, Texas – They switched the ninth and 18th holes at Fields Ranch East for the KPMG Women’s PGA. The move was made to accommodate the buildout for the championship.

The par-4 18th had more double-bogeys (12) than birdies (7) in the opening round.
