This LPGA tournament is under new ownership for 2025
The Kroger Queen City Championship returns for the 2025 LPGA season under new management. Outlyr, a sports and event marketing agency, now owns the tournament, which takes place Sept. 11-14 at TPC River’s Bend in Maineville, Ohio.
Outlyer now manages seven events on the LPGA’s schedule.
The Kroger Queen City debuted in 2022 at Kenwood Country Club and was originally owned and operated by Excel Sports Management. At last year’s edition, Lydia Ko won by five shots.
Outlyr Executive Vice President Michael Taft will serve as executive director of the event while Kevin Wyman will be tournament director.
Brad McDonough, a longtime FC Cincinnati corporate partnerships veteran, joins Outlyr as director of sales and corporate partnerships. Taylor Shrader, a member of the tournament team in 2024, joins Outlyr as tournament manager.
The field of 144 players at this year’s event will compete for a $2 million purse.
