LOTTE CHAMPIONSHIP

SEPTEMBER 28 - OCTOBER 4, 2025

HOAKALEI COUNTRY CLUB

The 2025 LOTTE CHAMPIONSHIP

The 2024 LPGA LOTTE Championship offered a spectacular week of golf with 120 players from 26 countries competing at the beautiful Hoakalei Country Club on the island of O'ahu, Hawai'i. A Lim Kim of Korea finished at 18-under 270 to win the LOTTE Championship this year, closing with a 4-under 68 to edge out playing partner Nataliya Guseva of Russia who finished with a 16-under 272.

This was Kim's third appearance in the LOTTE Championship presented by Hoakalei and her second LPGA Tour title. Following the traditional winner's hula, Kim was presented the $450,000 top prize by Seong-Hyun Hong, CEO of Daehong Communications, as well as an Honorary Lifetime Membership to Hoakalei Country Club by Ken Terao, Executive Director and General Manager.

"It was super fun. I haven't felt this way in a long time," Kim said. "Honestly, my focus always same. Not focus on result. It's focus on my process, and then routine, and then thinking, and choose my line and then go."

A stroke ahead of Guseva entering the day at breezy Hoakalei Country Club, Kim ended a six-hole par streak with a birdie on the par-5 18th.

The 29-year-old jumped from 65th to 22nd in the Race to CME Globe standings to secure a spot in the 60-player season finale that pays $4 million to the winner. She won the U.S. Women's Open in December 2020.

Auston Kim of Florida was third at 15 under after a 67. Nasa Hataoka (67) was another stroke back, and fellow Japanese player Yuri Yoshida (69) and Ryann O'Toole (70) of California were 13 under.

Angela Stanford closed with a 71 to tie for 26th at 5 under in what was her final LPGA Tour event. The 46-year-old Texan was greeted with flower lei, champagne and a cake at the end of her round.
