Katelyn Mulcahy
The LPGA took last week off. Hey, everyone is a fan of watching the Masters. But it was back in California for the second time this year, playing at the JM Eagle LA Championship at El Caballero Country Club northwest of Los Angeles.
Some of the biggest news was make Saturday during the third round for two reasons. First, Sei Young Kim opened a whopping eight-shot lead. Secondly, it was announced that the tournament purse was raised an extra $1 million on the spot, making it the largest purse on tour outside of majors or the CME Group Tour Championship.

Kim, however, did not go on to win, although she was in a playoff. Hannah Green birdied five of six holes to come storming back and joined Kim and Jin Hee Im in a playoff which Green would win on the first hole with a birdie. It's now the third time she's won this event, following victories in 2023 and 2024. Green took home $712,500 for her eighth victory on tour. Kim and Im each earned $386,536.
