LPGA Season of Surprises: 24 Events, 24 Different Winners — and Gear Talk That’s Stealing the Show
Call it the most unpredictable stretch in recent women’s golf: the LPGA Tour in 2025 has delivered carnival-style drama on course after course, and the stat-sheet looks like a roulette wheel. The leaderboard has flipped every week, and the gear story behind those wins is as juicy as the final putt.
As of writing, there have been 24 different champions in 24 events on the LPGA Tour for the 2025 season. That alone is the headline — no one has been able to claim a second victory and stamp their authority on the season.
No player has secured more than one victory in the 2025 season, contrasting sharply with the 2024 season where Nelly Korda achieved seven wins. The contrast could not be starker: 2024 had a runaway star; 2025 has been a rotating cast of winners.
In 2024, several players, including Lydia Ko and Hannah Green, also registered multiple wins, with Korda earning accolades such as LPGA Tour Player of the Year and the Race to the CME Globe. That memory of domination makes the current parity feel even wilder.
A total of 25 different players have participated in the 24 events this season, with the Dow Championship being a team event. The team format at the Dow Championship explains why the player count nudges beyond the event count.
Drivers and Brands: The Hidden Race Behind Each Win
The equipment angle has put manufacturers in the spotlight. Six brands of drivers have won on the LPGA Tour in 2025, totaling 14 different driver models. That’s a tidy little arms race of tech hitting the fairways.
Ping and Callaway are tied for the most wins in the 2025 season, with six victories each. Both brands have been slugging it out for bragging rights — and the win column reflects that neck-and-neck battle.
Key driver models achieving success include Callaway’s Elyte and Elyte Triple Diamond, as well as Ping’s G440 LST, G430 LST, G430 Max 10K, and G425 LST. Those models have shown up in winning bags more than once, proving model-level dominance even in a season with no repeat winners.
Lydia Ko employed the Ping G430 Max 10K in her triumph at the HSBC Women’s World Championship. That’s one of the vivid gear moments fans will replay when dissecting her swing and setup.
Titleist has recorded four wins this season with driver models GT2, GT3, and older TSR3. Old-school TSR3 tech still showing up in winners’ bags — that’s a shoutout to reliability.
The LPGA Tour’s driver performance significantly lags behind that of the PGA Tour, Walker Cup, and Ryder Cup. On raw driver-brand concentration and model spread, the LPGA numbers tell a different story compared with those other competitions.
TaylorMade, Yonex, and Srixon round out the remaining brands, with Srixon winning two out of five majors played this season. Majors are where legends are made, so Srixon’s impact there has been huge.
Successful players using TaylorMade include Haeran Ryu, Brooke Henderson, and Charley Hull, with Henderson winning her home open using the Qi10 model. National pride, hometown crowd — and a Qi10 in the bag.
Yonex drivers have seen success with Hyo Joo Kim and sisters Chisato and Akie Iwai. Yonex has quietly turned heads, especially with the Iwai sisters producing headline moments.
Chisato Iwai won the Mexico Riviera Maya Open using the Yonex EZone GT. That outing added to Yonex’s growing reputation on the LPGA stage.
The most successful drivers this season (three wins) are the Callaway Elyte, Elyte Triple Diamond, and Yonex EZone GT. Those specific models have collected the most trophies by model name in 2025.
Players such as Madelene Sagstrom, Carlota Ciganda, and Minjee Lee won using the standard Callaway Elyte driver. The Elyte has been one of those workhorse models that just keeps showing up where it counts.
Minjee Lee achieved a third Major title with her victory at the KPMG Women’s PGA Championship using the Callaway Elyte driver. That win added a major to her résumé and another big moment for the Elyte family.
Five drivers recorded two wins in 2025, which include Ping’s G430 LST and G430 Max 10K, Titleist’s GT3, Srixon’s ZXi, and TaylorMade’s Qi10 LS. Several models doubled up in 2025 — impressive in a season where individual players didn’t double up.
Season Snapshot
The 2025 LPGA Tour features 33 official tournaments from February to November and holds the highest total purse in women’s golf history at $131 million. More events, bigger purses, and an unbelievably wide array of winners — that’s the texture of this season.
The season reads like a thriller: different names on the trophy each week, manufacturers jockeying for validation, and majors still carrying the most electric moments. For gear-obsessed fans, 2025 has been a goldmine of data about what models perform under pressure. For rank-and-file followers, it’s been non-stop suspense with no player able to stamp the season as their own.
