The LPGA contests the Tour's only official team event of the year, the Dow Championship, at Midland Country Club in Midland, Michigan beginning on June 11.
The tournament which began in 2019 features 72 two-player teams in the field competing for a piece of the $3.3 million purse in the Great Lakes State. One of those teams includes now, two-time major winner, Nelly Korda after her epic U.S. Women's Open win last weekend at Riviera Country Club. She'll be teamed up with 30-year-old Olivia Cowan of Germany.
The stroke-play tournament format will alternate between foursomes (alternate shot) in Rounds 1 and 3 and fourballs (better ball) in Rounds 2 and 4. The team with the lowest score at the end of the 72 hole-tournament will be named the winner of the Dow Championship.
There is a 36-hole cut to the low 33 teams and ties. In the event of a playoff, teams will face off in a hole-by-hole, alternate shot format.
Defending champs Jin Hee Im and Somi Lee are back in the field looking to repeat at Midland.
