Hotels for The Chevron Championship 2027

The Chevron Championship — the first of the five women's golf majors and the spring opener of the LPGA season — is played at Memorial Park Golf Course in Houston, provisionally over the last weekend of April 2027. The tournament's move to Houston brought its famous champion's leap into the water hazard to a big-city municipal course close to downtown, and major week draws the world's best women golfers and their followers to Texas.

Memorial Park sits minutes from the heart of Houston, so there is a wide choice of city hotels within an easy trip of the course. Book early for major week, stay downtown or in the Galleria area for the best access, and confirm the exact 2027 dates with the official site before you travel.

The Chevron Championship is one of the five majors in women's golf and the first of the season, the spring opener on the LPGA Tour. It began life in 1972 as the Colgate-Dinah Shore, named for the entertainer and keen golfer Dinah Shore, and was granted major status in 1983. For decades it was played at Mission Hills Country Club in Rancho Mirage, California, where it gave the sport one of its most joyful traditions: the winner's leap into the lake beside the 18th green, known as Poppie's Pond.

In 2023 the tournament moved to the Greater Houston area under its Chevron title, carrying the champion's celebratory dive to Texas. Its list of winners reads as a history of the women's game, from Amy Alcott and Betsy King to Annika Sorenstam and Lorena Ochoa. Held in the spring, it sets the tone for the major season and draws the world's leading players to compete for one of the game's most coveted titles.
