NXXT Women's Pro Tour 2024/25 Winter Series in Review

Raising the Bar: A Landmark Season of Champions, Record Breakers, and Future Stars.

April 2025 – Miami, FL: The 2024/25 NXXT Women's Pro Tour Winter Series wasn't just a season—it was a powerful statement of evolution, innovation, and groundbreaking achievements. Spanning five extraordinary months, the tour hosted over 190 elite athletes from 27 countries, firmly establishing itself as the preeminent global launchpad for aspiring LPGA professionals.


Emergence of Global Talent

From the United States and Canada to Europe, Asia, Australia, and Latin America, the diverse talent showcased across the series highlighted the Tour’s global prominence. Players competed fiercely on iconic courses, pushing boundaries and rewriting records, demonstrating that the NXXT Tour is where the future of women's professional golf is defined.


Historic Performances & Record-Breaking Feats

The season witnessed exceptional record-setting performances:

  • Annabelle Pancake began the series by setting a remarkable 8-under-par course record at Club Adena, foreshadowing an exceptional season that included two victories.

  • At Alaqua Country Club, Hailee Cooper initially tied the course record with a brilliant 9-under round, only to witness Stanford standout Sadie Englemann establish a new record with an astonishing 10-under-par the next day.

  • This season’s record-setting excitement followed last year's unprecedented global achievement by Amelia Garvey, who famously accomplished the improbable single-round trifecta (eagle, albatross, hole-in-one) at odds of 4.5 trillion to one.
