AIG Women's Open Field 2024
The final women's Major of the season takes place at the Old Course, St Andrews, where the biggest names in the game will compete


The fifth and final women’s Major of the year comes from the Home of Golf, the Old Course at St Andrews, for the first time since 2013.
Inevitably, given the profile of the tournament and the venue, the majority of the world’s best players will be teeing it up, including last year’s winner, Lilia Vu. She eased to a six-shot win over Charley Hull at Walton Heath – the biggest margin of victory since 2012 when Jiyai Shin won by nine at Royal Liverpool.
Vu will be looking for a repeat of that success during a season that has had its fair share of frustrations with injury, although she has collected one LPGA Tour win along the way, at the Meijer LPGA Classic.

One of the standout names in the field is Lydia Ko, but even more so after her win at the women’s Olympics golf tournament. That not only earned her the gold medal but also a place in the LPGA Hall of Fame, and she will be hoping to add yet another accolade to her long list of career successes here with a third Major win.

World No.1 Nelly Korda also plays, where she will be hoping to recover her best form after taking the LPGA Tour by storm earlier in the year with six wins, including victory in the first Major of the year, the Chevron Championship.
Other big names in the field include Yuka Saso, who won the US Women’s Open, Amy Yang, who claimed victory at the KPMG Women’s PGA Championship, and Ayaka Furue, who took the Amundi Evian Championship title for her first taste of Major glory.
There are more high-profile players throughout the field, including two-time Major winner Jin Young Ko, 2019 Women’s PGA Champion Hannah Green, Ruoning Yin, who won the same title last year, 2023 Amundi Evian Champion Celine Boutier and one of the game’s rising stars, Rose Zhang.

Two-time LPGA Tour winner Lauren Coughlin also makes the field courtesy of her win at the ISPS Handa Women's Scottish Open.
This could also be the last time we get to see Lexi Thompson in a Major after she announced her intention to retire from full-time professional golf earlier in the year.

Former AIG Women’s Open champions include 2022 winner Ashleigh Buhai, Anna Nordqvist, who won a year earlier and 2020 winner Sophia Popov.
Elsewhere, look out for Hinako Shibuno, who won in 2020, Georgia Hall, who was the victor in 2019 and the player who claimed the title last time it was held at the Home of Golf, Stacy Lewis.
Greats of the game competing include seven-time Major winner Karrie Webb, although there's no place for Dame Laura Davies, who opted against competing in the final year of her exemption.
A dozen players, including Weiwei Zhang, Stephanie Meadow, and Jodi Ewart Shadoff, also made the field via final qualifying.
A handful of amateurs are also competing, including Augusta National Women’s Amateur champion Lottie Woad.
