In a groundbreaking decision, the LPGA has decided to move its prestigious Chevron Championship to Memorial Park, a municipal course in Houston, Texas. This change, expected to be officially announced next week, marks a significant shift from the tournament's long-standing location at Carlton Woods.
Memorial Park is known for its accessibility and community engagement, aligning with the LPGA's goals of promoting inclusivity in the sport. The move is anticipated to enhance the tournament's visibility and attract a broader audience, reflecting the LPGA's commitment to growing women's golf. This transition comes at a time when the LPGA is looking to elevate its profile and reach within the golfing community.
