World renowned golf and luxury resort destination Mayakoba announces today that British golfer Charley Hull has confirmed her attendance at the Mexico Riviera Maya Open at Mayakoba this May, hosted at Mayakoba’s famed El Camaleón championship course. Hull, ranked tenth on the LPGA Tour as of March 15, has won two major tournaments in her professional career, including The Ascendant LPGA benefiting Volunteers of America in 2022 and the CME Group Tour Championship in 2016. In the last year, Hull represented Great Britain at the 2024 Paris Olympics and was a member of the European Solheim Cup team, making her one of the most highly anticipated players to join the field at the Riviera Maya Open.
“I always prefer a course that challenges me with longer, more difficult holes, so I’m especially excited to test my skill at El Camaleón,” Hull says. “With this year’s record-breaking tournament schedule for the LPGA Tour, I’m looking forward to the opportunity to play in the Riviera Maya Open as one of the key events this season.”
Hull joined the LPGA Tour in 2015, a season in which she was named Rookie of the Year and to date has earned nearly 40 top ten finishes in her career. She has also found success on the Ladies European Tour, where Hull has landed four victories. In the 2025 season, Hull has played two tournaments, including the Founders Club presented by the U.S. Virgin Islands where she finished 19th and the HSBC Women’s World Championship where she finished 4th.
The LPGA Riviera Maya Open marks the tour’s return to Mexico for the first time in eight years, as the tour sets a record breaking 2025 schedule of events. Located within the 595-acre Mayakoba, El Camaleón has long served as a pioneering destination for the sport of golf in Mexico, and with the Mexico Riviera Maya Open at Mayakoba, it becomes the first and only course in the world to host PGA TOUR, LIV Golf, LPGA, AJGA and LACC events. Hull joins Gaby López and 142 other LPGA players at the tournament, which will distribute a total purse of $2.5 million in prize money.
“We are thrilled to have Charley Hull join the player field for the LPGA Riviera Maya Open at Mayakoba,” says Luis Durán, CEO at RLH Properties, the ownership group behind Mayakoba. “Her incredible talent and strong fan following will undoubtedly make her one of the favorite players to watch during the tournament this May. We look forward to seeing how she tackles the challenges that El Camaleón presents.”
In early 2024, El Camaleón completed a year-long enhancement project, including a total transformation of the clubhouse and a redesign of various holes on the championship course led by course designer and golf legend Greg Norman. Hole enhancements were designed to create a more challenging play environment, including changes to bunker elevations, longer tee boxes, a green update to hole 8 and a new island green on the picturesque oceanside fourth hole.
El Camaleón has been ranked as one of the top courses in Mexico by Golf Digest and one of the Top 100 Golf Resorts in the World by GOLF magazine. Weaving through the distinct ecosystems of Mayakoba, including tropical jungle, dense mangroves, freshwater canals, and pristine Riviera Maya oceanfront, the course is considered one of the most diverse in the world with a variety of shot options to test players’ skills.
