Having said that, who is the favorite to win the maximum in Pearland this week? Let’s take a look at some of the favorites in the 2025 Aramco Houston Championship.
Who can win the LET tournament in Texas?
The field at Golfcrest is packed with some famous women’s golfers. The biggest name on the field is probably the English star, Charley Hull. She came incredibly close to winning the 2025 AIG Women’s Open a few weeks ago. It’s evident that the 29-year-old is in remarkable form right now. It won’t come as a surprise if she converts that into another big win on the LET in the last 54 weeks.
Danielle Kang has also joined the field for the 2025 Aramco Houston Championship this weekend. Unlike Hull, Kang hasn’t been in the best form this year. In fact, this has been one of the worst seasons of the 32-year-old’s career. With fewer big names on the field, this is the perfect opportunity for Danielle to grab a win and also get back to winning ways.
