The 2026 LOTTE Championship at Hoakalei Country Club featured a deep LPGA field headlined by world No. 2 Jeeno Thitikul, No. 4 Hyo Joo Kim, and No. 5 Miyu Yamashita, among 25 top-50 players. Thitikul posted consistent rounds of 67-65-67-68 to finish at 21-under and win by three strokes, while Ina Yoon and Miyu Yamashita also carded strong closing rounds to secure top-three spots. The standard 36-hole cut and par-72 layout rewarded steady ball-striking and putting over four days, with recent form, course history at the Ernie Els design, and schedule positioning after the fall swing shaping final top-20 outcomes in a competitive 120-player event.
