The latest stop on the LPGA Tour’s schedule is the Blue Bay LPGA – the third and final event of this first Asian Swing.<\/p>\n

Rio Takeda is the defending champion on Hainan Island, China’s Jian Lake Blue Bay Golf Course, having romped to victory on 17-under and by six strokes this time last year.<\/p>\n

The Japanese pro headed into the final round in contention to win again, sitting T4 on eight under, four back of leader Mi Hyang Lee.<\/p>\n

Also in the hunt for the title at the start of the final round were the likes of Hye-Jin Choi and Yu Liu, who were T2, two back of the leader.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The fierce battle will be worth it, given whoever wins the 2026 Blue Bay LPGA is in line to earn a check for almost $400,000 before factors like taxes reduce how much money each pro golfer really sees<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Each of the top five should collect upwards of $100,000 while even the player who finishes last among the 75 to make the cut may well scoop more than $5,000 from a total prize purse of $2.6 million.<\/p>\n

And, as has been the case in each of the first three LPGA Tour events of 2026, there is 500 Race To CME Globe points available for this week’s champion, with a descending amount for everyone else who makes the weekend.<\/p>\n
