U.S. Women's Open 2026: Full field and prize money on offer at Riviera Country Club

U.S. Women's Open 2026: The second women's major of the season takes place in Los Angeles over 4-7 June.

01 Jun 2026

The very best female golfers in the world will head to Los Angeles this week for the second major of the year.

The 2026 U.S. Women's Open is being staged at Riviera Country Club for the first time.

World number one, Nelly Korda - who captured the first major championship of the season - is the pre-tournament favourite, followed by Thailand's Jeeno Thitikul.

Ruoning Yin, Hyo Joo Kim and Hannah Green will also fancy their chances.

England's charge will be led by Charley Hull, Bronte Law, Mimi Rhodes and Lottie Woad.

Charley Hull is still aiming to secure her first major title

Lexi Thompson, who has stepped back from a full-time schedule, is a notable absentee.

Thompson has not missed a U.S. Women's Open since 2007.

She was scheduled to take part in a qualifier in Florida last month but decided to withdraw, offering no explanation.

Elsewhere, Sweden's Maja Stark returns to defend her title.

After the conclusion of last week's ShopRite LPGA Classic, the field has now been confirmed.

There are 11 past champions in the field, including 2014 winner Michelle Wie, who is making a surprise appearance despite retiring three years ago.

In total, there are also 28 amateurs competing.

GolfMagic has listed the entire field below.

Prize money information is also listed at the bottom of this page.
