The LPGA canceled the Fir Hills Seri Pak
Championship near Los Angeles on Friday because the underwriter
of the tournament failed on payments for the 2024 and 2025
tournaments.
Nelly Korda was the defending champion at Palos Verdes Golf
Club, which had been scheduled for March 20-23.
The LPGA in a statement said canceling the tournament was
unavoidable because the underwrite failed to fulfill “any
portion of its payment obligations.” The tour said it would work
with title partner Fir Hills and Pak, the Hall of Fame
tournament host, to explore other options.
“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,” said Liz
Moore, the interim LPGA commissioner.
