About this listen
First, we close out coverage of the Walmart Northwest Arkansas Championship, where rain canceled play but Walmart and the LPGA still delivered a $2 million payout to players and 8,000 donated meals to the local community.
Then, LPGA commissioner Craig Kessler makes headlines with yet another Venn diagram—this time adding a third circle and promising to “work ruthlessly” to create global superstars. Marie breaks down what that means, and who might get left out.
We also hear from Lexi Thompson, who opened up about stepping back for her mental health, reflecting on the grind of the tour, her earnings this season, and what it says about the financial realities of professional women’s golf.
Finally, Michelle Wie West proves she’s still one of the game’s strongest voices, calling out slow play, questioning rules, and sharing her daughter’s budding love for golf.
From payouts and policies to retirements and rule changes, Birdie Buzz brings you the front page snapshot of women’s golf you won’t find anywhere else.
