The LPGA Tour's largest purse is back on the line, as the 2025 US Women's Open hits the links at Wisconsin's Erin Hills Golf Course on Thursday.

The oldest of the Tour's five major championships, the US Women's Open is now in its 80th year.

In partnership with tournament sponsor Ally, the event's $12 million overall prize money makes it the most lucrative competition in women's golf, with a $2.4 million check going to the eventual winner.

World No. 35 Yuka Saso of Japan, the 2021 and 2024 US Women's Open champion, is back to defend her title alongside eight other former tournament winners, including 2023 victor and current No. 38 Allisen Corpuz (USA) and 2022 champ No. 22 Minjee Lee (Australia).

Also vying for this year's trophy are all 12 2025 LPGA Tour victors, headlined by world No. 2 Jeeno Thitikul (Thailand) and No. 3 Lydia Ko (New Zealand), as well as the two title-winners from the US — No. 11 Angel Yin and No. 18 Yealimi Noh.

World No. 1 Nelly Korda leads 24 of the sport's Top 25 players on the 2025 US Women's Open course, as the US star still searches for her first victory of the season.

How to watch the US Women's Open

The US Women's Open tees off at 6:45 AM ET on Thursday, with coverage of the LPGA major kicking off at 12 PM ET across USA Network and Peacock.

Sunday's championship-winning final round will air live beginnning at 2 PM ET on NBC.

The 2024 WNBA Finals set the stage for this season in more ways than one, as last year's title contenders — the Minnesota Lynx and New York Liberty — carry their winning ways into 2025.

The undefeated Lynx cruised to a 5-0 record on Tuesday, downing a surging Seattle Storm 82-77 behind 23 points from guard Courtney Williams.

The reigning champion Liberty are keeping pace at 4-0, earning their fourth win with a 95-67 Tuesday night takedown of 2025 expansion side Golden State. Forward Breanna Stewart's 24 points led New York past the Valkyries.

Liberty, Lynx standouts race up the 2025 WNBA stat sheet

While many WNBA teams spent the offseason instituting major coaching and roster shakeups, the Lynx and Liberty kept last year's lineups mostly intact.

Minnesota star forward Napheesa Collier currently dominates scoring on the WNBA stat sheet with 26.8 points per game, and her block and steal rates are in the league's Top-5.

Meanwhile, teammate Alanna Smith also tops the leaderboard thanks to a 62.5% field goal percentage, and sits in fourth for both block and three-point rates.

The Liberty's Kennedy Burke has also been lights-out, leading the league in three-point percentage at 63.6% while shooting 60.9% from the field — good for fourth on the stat sheet.

Proving New York's few offseason moves were effective is 2025 Liberty addition Natasha Cloud, who sits in second with 8.3 assists per game. At the same time, the team as a whole is outpacing the rest of the league in field goal percentage (49.8%), as well as points (94), assists (25.3), and blocks (6.0) per game.

The league's top dogs won't clash on the court until July 30th — but early odds of a 2024 WNBA Finals rematch closing out the 2025 season grow stronger by the day.

Dallas earned their wings on Tuesday night, notching their first victory of the 2025 WNBA season by beating the still-winless Sun 109-87 in Connecticut's Uncasville home.

Playing on familiar ground, UConn product and 2025 No. 1 draft pick Paige Bueckers scored a career-high 21 points against the Sun, becoming the first WNBA player to top 60 points and 30 assists in her first five pro games in the process.

"I don't think I ever lost [at Mohegan Sun Arena]," Bueckers said after the win. "I was trying to carry that into tonight."

Sun, Sky still seeking first season wins

Now at a 0-5 record thanks to the Wings, the Sun are still hunting their first victory — as is the Chicago Sky, after Tuesday's tight 94-89 loss to the Phoenix Mercury pushed them to 0-4 on the season.

Despite Chicago's downfall, second-year forward Angel Reese put up 13 points and 15 rebounds in the loss, becoming the fastest player in WNBA history to record 500+ points and 500+ rebounds.

"[The team's performance] definitely felt better," Reese told reporters. "But obviously we're not satisfied… all of us are winners, we want to win."

With many freshly restructured teams still figuring it out, early skids are normal — but scoring that first win remains the best way to shift momentum.

Can Chicago, Connecticut snag a first victory this week?

Another shot at righting the ship is just around the corner for the Sky and the Sun.

First, Chicago will host the now-victorious Wings at 8 PM ET on Thursday, with live coverage on Prime.

Then on Friday, Connecticut will face a Caitlin Clark-less Fever side in Indiana at 7:30 PM ET, airing on ION.

A strong US contingent is showing out at the 2025 French Open, with 14 of the country's best tennis stars advancing to Wednesday's second round in Paris.

World No. 2 Coco Gauff headlines a US lineup spanning No. 3 Jessica Pegula and No. 8 Madison Keys as the WTA's top ranks battle it out for the Grand Slam's $2.9 million prize.

No. 16 Amanda Anisimova is also holding her own, advancing to the third round by downing Switzerland's No. 78 Viktorija Golubic 6-0, 6-2 on Wednesday, while US underdog No. 83 Bernarda Pera upset Croatia's No. 19 Donna Vekić in a three-set tiebreaker to do the same.

Despite her compatriots' success, No. 9 Emma Navarro became the only Top 10 player to crash out early, managing to win just a single game against Spain's No. 68 Jéssica Bouzas Maneiro in their first-round match on Monday.

Heavy-hitters No. 1 Aryna Sabalenka and No. 5 Iga Świątek are also cruising along, with Świątek ousting England's No. 41 Emma Raducanu in straight sets on Tuesday morning, while Sabalenka faces Switzerland's No. 97 Jil Teichmann for a second-round battle in the afternoon.

While three-time Grand Slam winner Sabalenka is hunting a first Roland-Garros trophy, Świątek already owns four, with the Polish phenom hoping to add to her current streak of three French Open victories — despite her recent struggles on clay.

Should Świątek and Sabalenka continue winning, the pair could collide in next week's semifinals, landing on the same side of the Roland-Garros draw while Gauff and Pegula hold down the other two quadrants.

Second-round action of the 2025 French Open continues through Thursday before Friday's third round takes the Roland-Garros clay court.
