Kupcho surges to the top of the season-long standings showcasing exceptional resilience and clutch decision-making
Kupcho's victory is a defining moment in the seven-year history of the Challenge, underscoring the resilience, grit and strategy that have characterized her season. Entering the week trailing the leaders, Kupcho showcased extraordinary composure under pressure, adjusting her approach on the season's final Challenge hole, attacking the green in two and executing with conviction. The result vaulted her to the top of the standings and cemented her position as the LPGA Tour's most strategic decision maker of 2025.
"I'm honored to win the Aon Risk Reward Challenge and to be recognized for the strategy and decision-making that goes into every round," said Kupcho. "It's an incredible feeling to join the list of past champions and to know that my performance this season reflects the values this challenge celebrates."
Known for her distance and precision, Kupcho has built a reputation as one of the Tour's fiercest competitors. Since joining the LPGA Tour in 2019, she has captured multiple titles — including her breakthrough major at the Chevron Championship — and has continued to distinguish herself throughout the 2025 season. Her ability to make confident decisions under pressure allowed her to capitalize when it mattered most, culminating in a decisive performance at The ANNIKA.
"At Aon, we help clients make better decisions by championing strategic thinking and resilience — qualities that are at the heart of the Aon Risk Reward Challenge," said Jennifer Bell, Executive Chair of
Kupcho's success this season was rooted in her consistent approach to risk and reward. She went for the green on Aon Risk Reward Challenge holes 68 percent of the time — the fifth-highest rate on the LPGA Tour — and converted those opportunities with a 33 percent success rate, the second-best mark on Tour. Her strategy was particularly strong on Challenge par 4s, where she led the LPGA in both go-for-green rate (58 percent) and success rate (33 percent), demonstrating her ability to take calculated risks and execute with precision. Supported by her 271.6-yard driving average (15th) and ranking of third in strokes gained off the tee on ARRC par 4s (+0.19 per hole), Kupcho routinely positioned herself for advantage. She paired that power with finesse around the green, ranking ninth in strokes gained around the green (+0.13 per hole), a combination that ultimately set the stage for the birdie-eagle finish that clinched her Challenge title.
"Jennifer's finish at The ANNIKA driven by Gainbridge at Pelican was everything this award is meant to celebrate. The eagle on 14 on Friday wasn't just great golf — it was bold, smart, fearless decision-making in a big moment," said LPGA Commissioner Craig Kessler. "Jennifer has a long history of rising to the occasion, and seeing her step up with that kind of conviction to clinch the Aon Risk Reward title was truly special. We're thrilled for her, and proud to recognize a player whose shot-making and strategy continue to elevate our game."
Kupcho adds the Aon Risk Reward Challenge title to her growing list of accomplishments, joining past champions Carlota Ciganda, Hannah Green, Minjee Lee, Angel Yin and Jeeno Thitikul.
