Former World No.1 And Five-Time Major Winner To Make First LPGA Tour Start Since 2021

Yani Tseng during the 2021 KPMG Women's PGA Championship.

Some of the best players in the world will be in the field for the LPGA Tour’s Drive On Championship, but one of the most notable appearances will be from former World No.1 Yani Tseng, whose most recent start on the circuit came in 2021. 

The Taiwanese player had been firmly on the road to becoming one of the all-time greats before poor form and injuries knocked her career off track. She claimed five Major titles between 2008 and 2011 – a quicker timeframe than even Tiger Woods took to accumulate the same number. In total, she also amassed 15 LPGA Tour wins and spent 109 weeks at the top of the world rankings, the fourth longest in the women's game.
