The LPGA schedule continues its early-season stretch with a strong field set for the Kroger Queen City Championship, with US star Nelly Korda leading the pack.
The Queen City Championship tees off on May 14th at Maketewah Country Club in Cincinnati, and is shaping up to be one of the deeper non-major events on the LPGA calendar.
Tournament officials continue to add to list of early commitments, including major champions Lexi Thompson and Anna Nordqvist alongside LPGA Tour winner Rose Zhang.
Defending champion Charley Hull, world No. 2 Jeeno Thitikul, and former champion Lydia Ko are also expected to compete. In total, the 144-player field features six former world No. 1 players, 21 major champions, and four winners from the 2026 season.
The field reflects the LPGA Tour's current form, with non-major events increasingly drawing top-ranked players.
Korda enters this stretch after winning her second Chevron Championship, securing her third career major title. The victory also moved her closer to LPGA Hall of Fame qualification while returning her to No. 1 in the world rankings.
What's Next on the LPGA Schedule for Nelly Korda
Before heading to Cincinnati, however, Korda will hit the links at the Riviera Maya Open at Mayakoba in Playa del Carmen, Mexico on April 30th. The LPGA event runs through May 3rd, with live coverage on The Golf Channel.
