NORTON, Mass. (Aug. 21, 2024) – The field is set for the 2024 FM Championship, to be held Aug. 29 to Sept. 1 at TPC Boston. A who’s-who of the world’s best golfers will head to Norton, Mass., next week, marking the LPGA Tour’s return to New England for the first time since the 2004 U.S. Women’s Open. This inaugural playing of the FM Championship will see 144 athletes competing for a $3.8 million purse, the largest purse on the LPGA Tour outside of the majors and tour championship.
The 2024 FM Championship field includes 56 LPGA Tour winners, highlighted by 15-time champion Jin Young Ko and two-time 2024 winners Hannah Green and Lauren Coughlin. Green and Coughlin are two of 10 2024 LPGA Tour winners in the FM Championship field, along with Moriya Jutanugarn, Yuka Saso, Linnea Strom, Bailey Tardy, Jeeno Thitikul, Chanettee Wannasaen, Amy Yang and Rose Zhang.
The field also includes Massachusetts favorites Megan Khang, who hails from Rockland, and Alexa Pano, who grew up in Westborough. This year’s Olympic bronze medalist Xiyu Lin is one of 45 Olympians from the last three Games teeing it up south of Boston.
The FM Championship field will include three special exemptions – leading amateurs Elizabeth Rudisil and Yana Wilson, as well as Massachusetts native Alison Walshe. Three spots remain in the FM Championship field, to be filled by the winner of the AIG Women’s Open (if not already in the field) and the top two finishers of Monday’s Local Qualifying Round.
