There was no shortage of incredible performances throughout the 2025 women’s golf schedule, here is Fore-All’s list of the best of the best:
No. 5 – Angel Yin at Honda LPGA Thailand – It took a lot to hold off rookie sensation Akie Iwai’s incredible final round 61 in Thailand, but a steady and consistent attack led Yin to her second LPGA Tour title. Yin shot 67, 64, 64, 65 to shoot -28 for the four rounds. Iwai finished just one stroke back, but those two were six shots clear of the rest of the field. For standard events, it was tough to top this performance.
No. 4 – Maja Stark at U.S. Women’s Open – While Maja Stark technically only won by two strokes at the U.S. Women’s Open, it was a bit misleading because of an overly conservative finish, which she could afford with a big lead. She also took down a leaderboard that included Nelly Korda, Rio Takeda and Ruoning Yin in firm contention. Stark seemed to have complete control on the tricky, and punishing, Erin Hills.
No. 3 – Jeeno Thitikul at CME Group Tour Championship – The best player in the world has arguably never looked stronger in her career, essentially winning this event by the time she tee’d off on Sunday. Thitikul shot -26, winning by four strokes and really never letting any contenders approach her. It was highlighted by her second and third rounds where she shot 63 and 64 respectively. It was a total showcase of everything that makes Thitikul special.
No. 2 – Grace Kim at Evian Championship – Easily the greatest stretch of holes anyone had on the LPGA Tour this season, and potentially in professional golf history. After a double bogey on hole 12, Kim was incredible the rest of the way out, finishing birdie, birdie, par, eagle on the final four holes in regulation. She then stared down Jeeno Thitikul in the playoff, making a miraculous birdie on the first hole, then a winning-eagle on the second playoff hole to capture her first major title.
No. 1 – Minjee Lee at KPMG Women’s PGA Championship – The KPMG Women’s PGA Championship at PGA Frisco was controversial, with a course that some viewed as unfair and many thought was unwatchable. It didn’t help that Lee was playing a completely different game than anyone else in the field. Lee was in firm control, hitting greens and putting spectacularly while everyone else seemed clueless. Lee was one of only three players in the field to score even par or better, and won by three strokes at -4 for the week.
