As we enter the second month of the 2025 calendar, the events of every league have filled the schedule for the golf world. After the long break, the first event of LPGA has already teed off. With just a few days after the Hilton Grand Vacations Tournament of Champions, the second event, the Founders Cup will tee off at Bradenton, Florida.

The Founder Cup 2025 offers a great purse increase with a $2 million prize pot. Not only a purse increase, but the winner can also grab 500 CME points. Last year, Rose Zhang already set hopes for the event with a 24 under par score, and this year the fan’s favorite 7-time LPGA Tour winner of 2024, Nelly Korda will also be featuring in the event. For the fans, it will be no less than a delight.

To witness the golfing action at the Bradenton Country Club teeing off from February 6-9th, 2025, fans have the option to take single-day, weekly or Champions Club Hospitality passes. Even the event offers the fans to experience a special inside the rope with a pass costing $3000. Only two fans will be allowed to walk inside with a featured group.

For other passes, fans can buy them from the SeatGeek website linked at the LPGA ticket’s page. The general admission for Thursday is $39, and for the rest of the three days, it is $49. As an alternative, fans who wish to attend the entire event can also opt for the weekly general admission, which costs $129, but it costs $799 which is inclusive of hospitality in the 9th Green Champions Club.

Other than the two options, Daily Champions Club offers events and access to hospitality. The passes for the first day cost $329, while for the weekend it is $349. Additionally, junior and military personnel are free to experience the event. With the great list of golfers participating, this is definitely not a miss for fans.
