The CME Group Tour Championship is the season-ending event of the LPGA Tour, similar to that of the men's PGA Tour Championship. The event has a field of 60 players and is sponsored by the CME Group, as the name suggests. It replaced the LPGA Tour Championship, which was held in 2009 and 2010, with Anna Nordqvist and Maria Hjorth taking home the titles, respectively.
The LPGA Tour debuted a season-long points competition in 2014, known as the Race to the CME Globe, with a $1 million prize. Based on their standing in the points list, each golfer's season-long "Race to the CME Globe" points were "reset" before the event. After which, the championship points and reset points are combined to decide the ultimate winner of the "Race to the CME Globe."
