The LPGA Tour has confirmed its schedule for the 2025 season, in what will be its 75th anniversary year.
Nelly Korda won The ANNIKA in the latest LPGA Tour event, but unfortunately the tournament also gained negative attention.
Slow play disrupted The ANNIKA before Korda eventually won by three shots for her seventh title of the season.
It was the penultimate competition in the Race to CME Globe, with Korda having made a successful return from injury to come out on top.
Prior to that victory, Korda was paired with basketball star Caitlin Clark, with the duo linking up in the Pro-Am, much to the delight of supporters.

What will the 2025 LPGA Tour season look like?
The significant increase proves just how much the game is growing, with plenty of growth still on the cards in years to come.
World number one Korda has certainly played a crucial role in that growth, with the American enjoying a stunning season on the course.
