The Kroger Queen City Championship was first played in 2022 and, over its time, Ally Ewing, Minjee Lee and Lydia Ko have claimed the title.
Last year, Ko dominated proceedings as she carded a final round 63 to win by five strokes. For 2025, she returns as the defending champion, with Charley Hull, Jeeno Thitikul and Nelly Korda among the other big names joining her.

Taking place in Ohio, there's a lot up for grabs as the LPGA Tour starts to make its way to the end of the season, with prize money and points on the table for those in attendance.
As in 2023 and 2024, the prize money has remained the same at the Kroger Queen City Championship, with a $2 million tournament purse making way for a first prize of $300,000.
As well as the financial rewards, there are 500 Race to the CME Globe points on offer, as players continue their season-long battle to qualify for the CME Group Tour Championship and bank as much of the lucrative purse as they can, which was $11 million last season.
Below, we've listed the complete prize money payout for the 2025 Kroger Queen City Championship.
