Pelican Women’s Championship 2021: Breakdown of the Prize Money From Winner to Last-Place

The Pelican Women’s Championship is back this year, the event’s second year on the LPGA Tour schedule. The tournament will be held at the Pelican Golf Club in Florida. As one of the newer LPGA events, the Pelican Women’s Championship brings with it a different kind of excitement.

The tournament was introduced into the schedule last year, another initiative by the LPGA. It was presented by DEX Imaging, who already have ties with other sports teams like the Tampa Bay Buccaneers (NFL) and the Tampa Bay Rays (MLB). This event is another way for DEX Imaging’s Doyle Family to give back to the community, adding another exciting event to the LPGA calendar.
