The Seaview Bay Course will favor strong iron players

Before delving into the records of a few players this season, here’s a look at the course that will hold the 2025 ShopRite LPGA Classic. Seaview’s Bay course, a 6,247-yard, par-71 layout, puts golfers to the test with five holes that cleverly incorporate marshland into their defense. While the fairways generally offer plenty of room, the course demands precision and accuracy from good iron players due to its small, tricky greens and the lurking challenges of tall fescue grass.

Now that’s exactly where Rio Takeda has a chance to shine. Rio Takeda won the Blue Bay LPGA in March, finishing six strokes ahead of the competition. She has continued her strong performance, placing in the top 10 in three of her last four tournaments, including a second-place finish at the U.S. Women’s Open. Currently, she ranks fourth on the LPGA in strokes gained on approach this season, averaging +1.1 per round. Pajaree Anannarukarn has impressed with her iron play this season, gaining +0.85 strokes per round. In her 12 tournaments this season, she achieved her best finish with a tie for 10th at the Hilton Grand Vacations Tournament of Champions.

What’s your perspective on:

Will Nelly Korda finally break her title drought at the ShopRite LPGA Classic this year?

Have an interesting take?

Albane Valenzuela has finished in the top 10 at this event for the past three years, which aligns well with her strengths. Strong tee shots aren’t essential for success here, which works in favor of the Swiss golfer. Although she has lost strokes off the tee this season, she has excelled with her irons, gaining +0.75 strokes per round with her approach play. Aside from these golfers, the Seaview Bay course will host Nelly Korda, Mao Saigo, and Jin Young Ko, among others.
