The GIST: Putters were broken, and patience was tested at this weekend’s KPMG Women’s PGA Championship, the third major of five on the LPGA calendar — but none of that fazed World No. 24 Minjee Lee: The Australian cruised through the competition to win her third career major.

🏌️‍♀️ Lee’s third-round excellence was the difference maker: The entire weekend proved grueling for the world’s best, but Saturday was particularly challenging as wind gusts, rising temps, and diabolical hole locations wreaked havoc on the leaderboard. In fact, rounds took a mind-boggling six hours that day, far surpassing the LPGA season average of 4 hours and 40 minutes.

• But that was when Lee made her money: She posted a 69, aka three under par, in the third round, beating the day’s average score by an incredible seven strokes to open a massive lead she wouldn’t relinquish. Pressure? What pressure?

⚖️ Did somebody say parity?: While 2024 was the (world No. 1 American) Nelly Korda show, 2025 has been all about the ensemble. Each of the 16 events so far this season has featured a different winner, a stark contrast to last year, when Korda hoisted six of her seven trophies before June, and another six players took home multiple event titles before season’s end.

• It’s the first time the LPGA’s gone this far into a season without a repeat winner — and Korda hasn’t even won an event yet. With 17 tournaments still to play, will this parity par-tee continue? Watch this space.
