2022 LPGA Chevron Championship: Prize Money Breakdown and Winner’s Payout

The LPGA Tour is currently in California for the exciting Chevron Championship 2022. A major tournament in women’s professional golf, fans and players are always eager to follow the championship. Interestingly, this year’s edition might just be a little too special.

With Chevron partnering with the event, this cherished event will move to Texas from the Mission Hills Country Club in Rancho Mirage, California. Popular LPGA players have spoken about the venue change, admitting that it will be a bittersweet moment for players.

“The biggest thing about this event is Poppie’s Pond,” mentioned Lydia Ko. The winners jump into the concrete-lined pond surrounding the 18th, making it a tradition. The name is also meant to honor former tournament director Terry Wilcox, who is called Poppie by the grandchildren.

Which course is the Chevron Championship played on?

The venue itself has three courses, where the Dinah Shore Tournament Course is used for the championship. Arnold Palmer Signature Course, Arnold Palmer Signature Course and the Pete Dye Challenge Course are other courses present at the golf club.
