“Winning in my home country means so much to me — sometimes even more than a major.” World No. 1 Jeeno Thitikul wins Honda LPGA Thailand 2026 in front of family, friends, and her adoring nation.

“My mom came up to me after I finished 18 and she cried a lot,” Thitikul said. “I told her I finally won in front of you. She was emotional, and that made me emotional too.”

For Thai golf fans, Honda LPGA is a holy grail, and with that comes the pressure cauldron that has buckled even our best. Jeeno walked into this week on top of the world, and she has more than risen to the occasion. She wins on the week of her 23rd birthday, and for the first time ever, in front of her own mother, who does not travel on tour with her.

This is the 8th LPGA tour win of her career.

    It’s good for her that she’s winning more. Was looking for a while like she was going to have a TON of super strong finishes without tallying the wins up.

    She’s the LPGA’s Scheffler. So consistent.
