The LPGA Tour is the leading women’s professional tour, based in the United States and playing worldwide. The Ladies European Tour is a separate tour based in Europe, and the two co-sanction a number of events each season, which is why some tournaments appear on both schedules.
The five women’s majors
The Chevron Championship, the U.S. Women’s Open, the KPMG Women’s PGA Championship, The Amundi Evian Championship, and the AIG Women’s Open. Five championships, run by five different organizations — which is why there is no single page listing all of them, and why each one below links to its own.
Solheim Cup
Biennial team match play between the United States and Europe, run with the LPGA and the Ladies European Tour. Venue and year live on the official Solheim Cup site.
Q-Series and the path onto the LPGA
LPGA Q-Series is the primary qualifying route. The Epson Tour is the developmental tour. Entry criteria change. Read the official Q-Series page before you treat any summary as a plan.
Where to watch
Broadcast and streaming rights move between networks from season to season and vary by country, so the reliable answer is always the tour’s own tournament page — it lists the windows for each round. If you are picking one week to watch, make it the Solheim Cup: match play, a crowd, and no cut.
