This year marks the 10th edition of the KPMG Women’s PGA Championship (formally known as the LPGA Championship). In the last nine years, the major has been organized at some historic venues, and the tournament’s purse has increased significantly in the last few years, from $4.5 million in 2021 to $20 million. The major that has pushed other majors in women’s golf to new heights of success is scheduled to take place from June 20th to June 23rd.

The KPMG Women’s PGA Championship has returned to the Sahalee Country Club in Sammamish, Washington, after 2016, when Brooke Henderson emerged as the champion. This was the first major championship for then-19-year-old Henderson when she defeated Lydia Ko in the playoffs after a tie. Talking about this year, let’s explore the broadcast schedule for the major.

Tune in to the KPMG Women’s PGA Championship 2024 from your home

If you are someone who wants to enjoy the KPMG Women’s PGA Championship without having to step outside, then you will be glad to know that you can watch all four rounds of the major tournament live on TV. The schedule for the June 20th and 21st rounds will be the same. Initially, you will need to turn to Peacock as it will air the rounds from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m. ET, and later on, you can enjoy the remaining part of those from 6 p.m. to 10 p.m. ET on the Golf Channel on the respective days.

Talking about the penultimate round of the major on Saturday, you’ll have to switch between three channels. Firstly, it will be broadcast on Peacock from 1 p.m. to 3 p.m. ET; then, you will need to make a switch to NBC for the second installment of the round from 3 p.m. to 6 p.m. ET. Finally, you’ll have to tune in to the Golf Channel from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. ET.

It’s Sunday and you are waiting for the live broadcast of the final round. Let us tell you that it is going to be aired partly on Peacock and NBC. The coverage will start at noon ET on Peacock and will continue until 3 p.m. ET. Later on, to air the second part of the round from 3 p.m. to 7 p.m. ET, NBC will take charge. In the major, all the past champions will be seen manifesting their skills on the Washington Greens.

The dominant forces are going to be a part of the major

The defending champion, Ruoning Yin, won the major last year by one shot after defeating Yuka Saso. The Chinese pro watched Saso make a birdie on the last hole, and she, too, needed a birdie in order to win. Yin did get that birdie and after the tournament, she reflected on how she felt at that moment: “I actually kind of felt that I was going to make it, and I made it. It’s a very weird feeling.”

Another force to be reckoned with at the tournament is Nelly Korda. She must really want to do well in the major after her disappointing performances in the last major, the US Open, where she failed to make the cut. When it comes to the KPMG championship, the tournament must hold a special spot in her heart, as this was the very event where Korda clinched her maiden major victory in 2021. She scored an amazing 19 under 269 and during the par-5 final hole, Korda already had a 3-shot lead. After making that hole at par, she threw her hands in the air, feeling joy and relief. “Thank God,” she said.

Korda and Yin will be joined by the other past winners, including  Hannah Green, who is the third Australian to win an LPGA major, joining Webb and Jan Stephenson, Danielle Kang, who is the first American since Cristie Kerr in 2010 to win the tour’s flagship major, and Yani Tseng, the only person on the field who has won the major two times.

Lilia Vu is another notable player in the tournament, as she recently showed her level to the world by making an impressive comeback from her injury, winning the Meijer Classic 2024. The injury caused the world number two to withdraw from the two majors—the Chevron Championship and the US Women’s Open – that happened earlier this year. Let’s see who lifts the cup for the third major of 2024, as the field has some pretty competitive names.
