The Women's PGA Championship returns to Hazeltine National Golf Club for the first time since 2019, with a stellar field of the world's elite women's golfers competing for top honours at this year's third Major event. Who will claim the championship come Sunday?

Minjee Lee is back to defend her title after a three-stroke victory over Chanettee Wannasaen and Auston Kim in 2025.

Hazeltine National Golf Club was the host venue for the U.S. Women's Open in 1966 and 1977, and the 2019 Women's PGA Championship won by Hannah Green.

Past and present Major winners in the field for Thursday's tee-off include Nelly Korda, Chun In-gee, Hannah Green, Brooke Henderson, Danielle Kang, Sei-young Kim, Minjee Lee, Anna Nordqvist, Park Sung-hyun, Yani Tseng, Amy Yang, Ruoning Yin, Céline Boutier, Ashleigh Buhai, Allisen Corpuz, Ayaka Furue, Grace Kim, Lydia Ko, Jennifer Kupcho, Mao Saigo, Yuka Saso, Maja Stark, Patty Tavatanakit, Lilia Vu, and Miyū Yamashita.

These are our four selections that could win the title this weekend.

Nelly Korda

Nelly Korda has been in tremendous form on the LPGA Tour this year, recording a victory at the Hilton Grand Vacations Tournament of Champions, a 2nd at the Fortinet Founders Cup, a 2nd at the Ford Championship, a T2 at the Aramco Championship, a victory at the Chevron Championship, a T8 at the Riviera Maya Open, and a victory at the U.S. Women's Open.

The number one-ranked golfer has featured nine times at the KPMG PGA Championship, finishing T64 in 2013, T59 in 2016, T44 in 2017, T10 in 2018, T39 in 2019, MC in 2020, MC in 2021, T8 in 2022, T64 in 2023, MC in 2024, and T2 in 2025.

Nelly Korda has been in sublime form this season and can win her third consecutive Major title of 2026 in Minnesota this weekend.

Haeran Ryu

Haeran Ryu had a solid start to her season on the LPGA Tour, placing T9 at the Hilton Grand Vacations Tournament of Champions, T10 at the Honda LPGA Thailand, 6th at the HSBC Women's World Championship, T5 at the Fortinet Founders Cup before finishing T29 at the Ford Championship and missing the cut at the Aramco Championship.

However, Haeran Ryu did not take long to rediscover her touch, placing T5 at the JM Eagle LA Championship, T12 at the Chevron Championship, T14 at the Mizuho Americas Open, and 2nd at the Kroger Queen City Championship.

The world's 12th-ranked player has made three appearances at the KPMG PGA Championship, with results of MC in 2023, T9 in 2024, and T61 in 2025.

Haeran Ryu can convert her recent results into victory at the Hazeltine National Golf Club this weekend.

Hannah Green

Hannah Green has been in excellent form on the LPGA and LET in 2026,

placing 7th at the Honda LPGA Thailand, a victory at the HSBC Women's World Championship, a victory at the Women's Australian Open, a victory at the Australian WPGA Championship, MC at the Aramco Championship, a victory at the JM Eagle LA Championship, T7 at the Chevron Championship, T14 at the Mizuho Americas Open, T28 at the U.S. Women's Open, and T27 at the Meijer LPGA Classic last weekend.

The world's sixth-ranked golfer has contested the KPMG PGA Championship eight times, with results of MC in 2018, victory in 2019, T23 in 2020, MC in 2021, T5 in 2022, T68 in 2023, T24 in 2024, and 68th in 2025.

Hannah Green's only Major victory came at this event in 2019, and she has the form to win at the Hazeltine National Golf Club for a second time this weekend.

Sei Young Kim

Sei Young Kim had a solid start to her season on the LPGA Tour, placing T10 at the Honda LPGA Thailand, T21 at the HSBC Women's World Championship, T3 at the Founders Cup, MC at the Ford Championship, T41 at the Aramco Championship, and T2 at the JM Eagle LA Championship.

Sei Young Kim's form dipped after those results, missing the cut at the Chevron Championship and Mizuho Americas Open, and then finishing T40 at the Kroger Queen City Championship before returning to form at the U.S. Women's Open, placing 5th overall.

The world's tenth-ranked player has compiled a solid record at the KPMG PGA Championship, with results of 2nd in 2015, 11th in 2016, T4 in 2017, T25 in 2018, 20th in 2019, victory in 2020, T12 in 2021, T5 in 2022, MC in 2023, MC in 2024, and T52 in 2025.

Sei Young Kim has gone close to winning a few times this season and will have a chance to win in Minnesota if she can replicate those performances.

Verdict

KPMG Women's PGA Championship

Nelly Korda has been the player to beat on the LPGA Tour this season and looks unstoppable on current form.

Haeran Ryu comes into this tournament in great touch and can lift the winning trophy at Hazeltine National Golf Club come Sunday.

Hannah Green has lifted four trophies this year and has a chance to secure another at the 2026 KPMG PGA Championship this weekend.

Sei Young Kim can emerge victorious in Minnesota after recording three top-five finishes in 2026.
