DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. (Jan. 24, 2025) – The LPGA announced today the FIR HILLS SERI PAK Championship, scheduled to take place at Palos Verdes Golf Club from March 20-23, 2025, will not be held as originally planned.

Cancelling the event on its current date was unavoidable due to the event underwriter failing to fulfill any portion of its payment obligations to the LPGA Tour for the 2024 and 2025 events. The LPGA will work with our committed title partner, FIR HILLS, and LPGA legend Seri Pak as well as all other stakeholders to explore available options for rescheduling the event once this matter is resolved with the underwriter.

“We are deeply disappointed to announce this year’s FIR HILLS SERI PAK Championship will not go forward in March,” said Interim LPGA Commissioner Liz Moore. “We apologize for the impact this has on our players, as well as on our fans, partners and volunteers. We also want to express our heartfelt gratitude to the staff and members at Palos Verdes Golf Club, Palos Verdes Estates, and tournament operator, Outlyr, for their exceptional partnership and hospitality. It is our intention to return to Palos Verdes in the future to host title sponsor, FIR HILLS, once again alongside these great partners. We remain dedicated to bringing this event back to our schedule to honor the incredible legacy of Seri Pak, who has been a wonderful ambassador for the game and this event.”
