It’s the holiday season, and the LPGA Tour stars are celebrating it with their loved ones, having a happy time on Merry Christmas. And why shouldn’t they? 2024 was a busy year for the Tour. Every star showed some impeccable play to win as often as they could. While not everyone is a Nelly Korda or Lydia Ko, they all still deserve a break for their efforts in 2024.
So what are these stars up to? Let’s explore their social media pages to see Charley Hull & Co. celebrating their Christmas.
Lydia Ko

It seems that the 2024 AIG Women’s Open winner can’t stay away from the course for very long. Lydia Ko dominated the course in 2024 grabbing 3 wins in 20 attempts with 5 more top-10 finishes. It looks like she is eager to win another title!
Only a few hours ago, the Kiwi star was seen teeing up on a course along with her friends and family. There were no visible bright red outfits, reindeer, or gifts, but there was an intense competition. The slideshow of stories on her Instagram began with the following caption “Guess who’s the pro 👀” in a black background. We all know who is!
The following slides were videos of different individuals teeing off. The first one in the lineup was PGA Tour pro; Anthony Yong Kim. While we could comment on how good the drive was, the fall just disappeared into the abyss for us to make any sort of judgment. He was followed by Lydia Ko’s sister, Suro Ko. Having the former world no. 1 as your sister must have rubbed off on Suro as she hit a beautiful stroke directed towards the right of the field. It is not clear who the remaining 3 contenders in the contest are; however, the last slide confirmed where the group was at. Lydia Ko & her loved ones were at the Millbrook Resort in Queenstown, New Zealand enjoying a Merry Christmas.
Charley Hull
At this point, can Charley Hull be considered a professional vacationer? Having last played at the 2024 CME Group Tour Championship, Hull has been constantly posting videos and pics of her holidaying in and around her home country. From the hints of a new boyfriend to nights out with friends, the Englishwoman has been a social butterfly while receiving much love from her fans.
This time around, she has been busy with her dad and his pals. Sharing a story of posing with them, Hull wished everyone who fell her with “Merry Christmas everyone! From me and my dads mates!” It seemed like she was at a local pub with them as shown in the very next story. The fashionista then shared a glimpse of her and her fellow pro golfers on the TaylorMade photoshoot.
This video featured Rory McIlroy, Tiger Woods, Collin Morikawa, Nelly Korda, Tommy Fleetwood, and Brooke Henderson apart from herself. Another video was a reshare of one of her friends with the caption “Christmas Day sauna & ice bath 🤍 ✨ @charley.hull,” possibly showing what the star has planned for the evening.
Her last story was a picture of her standing in front of a Christmas tree and gifts with another wish for everyone. She wrote, “Merry Christmas everyone. It’s not what’s under the tree it’s who’s around it. Hope you all have a lovely one ❤️❄🎄 Only missing one person❤️🥰”
Rose Zhang
The 2024 Cognizant Founders Cup was busy focusing on spending time with her family. While Rose Zhang is not that eager to post on social media, she still shared a glimpse. The 21-year-old posted a picture of the incredible feast at her home with the caption “#familytime.” At the bottom of the story was a simple “Merry Christmas” wishing her followers a joyful holiday season.
Nelly Korda
It was less of just Nelly Korda and more of Team Korda on the world no. 1’s post. The 13x LPGA Tour winner posted a couple of pictures with her sister; Jessica Korda, and her brother; Sebastian Korda on her Instagram. Both the sisters hugged their brother as the caption read, “Merry Christmas from your 3 favorites Ho Ho Ho’s 🎅🏼🎄” The post received a lot of love and many wishes from her fans in the comments section.

Lexi Thompson
She may have retired from full-time golfing, but Lexi Thompson is still an LPGA Tour star and a beloved one at that. Having stepped away from the job, the 29-year-old has been busy living her best life by achieving her fitness goals and spending time with her family and loved ones.
She even shared a story of her fitness journey a few days ago showcasing her incredible fitness. This time around, Thompson was seen holding her poodle in her car with a “Merry Christmas everybody 🎄❤️” in the captions.
