Description

The Evian Championship is a women's professional golf tournament in France, played at the Evian Resort Golf Club in Évian-les-Bains. It was originally held in June, moved to July in 2003, and moved again to September in 2013. It returned to a July date in 2019.
Beginning in 2007, the field was expanded to 90 players and a cut added after the second round. A cut means the players with the lowest 70 scores and anyone tied for 70th place play all four rounds and win prize money based on their final standing in the tournament. The other players are eliminated after the second round. The field was increased to 111 players in 2010 and 120 when it became a major in 2013.
Founded 27 years ago in 1994 on the Ladies European Tour (LET) as the Evian Masters, it is one of two major championships on the LET. Not originally a major on the LPGA Tour, it became an LPGA co-sanctioned event in 2000, which included a significant increase in purse size.
The event takes place Jul 22-25 and has a prize fund of $4,100,000.

Australian Minjee Lee started the day seven shots behind Korean leader Jeongeun Lee6 (71) and produced seven birdies in the final round to close at 18-under, joining Lee6 in a playoff for the Amundi Evian Championship.
Lee6 dropped a shot on the first extra hole when her second shot found the water while Lee’s landed near the flag. Lee6 bogeyed the hole and Lee won her sixth LPGA title and first major victory.
