Pearland, Texas – The Aramco Houston Championship is set to take place from Friday, September 5 to Sunday, September 7 at Golfcrest Country Club in Pearland, Texas, featuring a record-breaking $2 million purse.

A total of 26 four-player teams will face off during the first two days of the event, leading into an exciting final round on September 7, where the championship title will be decided through an individual stroke play format.

This year’s tournament promises to be star-studded, with prominent players such as U.S. Solheim Cup standout Alison Lee, European competitors Carlota Ciganda and Charley Hull, LPGA favorite Muni He, and major champion Patty Tavatanakit expected to compete. Alison Lee’s participation is particularly noteworthy as it marks her return to the sport after giving birth earlier this year.

Among other participants, six-time LPGA winner Danielle Kang and Swedish amateur sensation Meja Ortengren, the recent champion of the Hills Open in Sweden, will also grace the event. England’s Mimi Rhodes, the current leader in the 2025 LET Order of Merit, adds further intrigue to the competition.

To enhance the experience for those attending, a family fun area and daily entertainment will be provided for fans. Tickets for the event start at an affordable $15–$20, making it a highly accessible tournament. Additionally, children aged 16 and under can enjoy free entry.

This year’s competition showcases a remarkable field of 104 professional golfers, all vying for a share of the substantial prize purse. The structure of the tournament sees the first two days focusing on team format, while the climactic final day will witness players competing for the championship and a piece of the lucrative purse.

Last year, Nuria Iturrioz claimed victory at the 2025 Aramco Houston Championship, finishing two strokes ahead of both Charley Hull and Carlota Ciganda with an impressive total score of 13 under par. Iturrioz secured her win by birdieing three of her last five holes in the final round, culminating in a score of 68. Hull and Ciganda concluded the event tied for second place at 11 under par. Given Hull’s return from an ankle injury, her final round score of 67 demonstrated her competitive resilience.
