Jeeno Thitikul sets a new LPGA Tour single-season scoring record. She enjoyed a marvelous season on the circuit this year. She has recently won the 2025 CME Group Tour Championship and has recorded a single-season scoring average of 68.681.
Thitikul has surpassed Annika Sörenstam’s record. Golf journalist Beth Ann Nichols shared the stats on her X (formerly Twitter) account with a caption:
"Jeeno Thitikul sets a new single-season scoring record for the LPGA, beating Annika Sorenstam’s 2002 record. 2002 Annika 68.697 2025 Jeeno 68.681"
Jeeno Thitikul opened up about surpassing Annika Sörenstam’s record in the post-round press conference after winning the CME Group Tour Championship on Sunday. She said (via ASAP Sports):
"Definitely. Hope Annika was not going to be angry on that. To be honest I didn't think about that at all. Like Vare Trophy is the one that I think every players wanted to win for sure.
"It's mean you're having the lowest round for entire year, which mean you definitely going to be on top of the Tour for sure in that year. I think that's really honor for me to be able to win it for the second time of my career," she added.
Thitikul had won three LPGA Tour events this season and was awarded the Rolex Player of the Year award. She previously won the Mizuho Americas Open and then won the Buick LPGA Shanghai before winning the CME Group Tour Championship.
