TY Management, Owner of Kapalua Golf, Welcomes the LPGA’s 2027 LOTTE Championship to Maui
As professional golf returns to Kapalua Golf, TY Management looks forward to uplifting local businesses and the economy of West Maui.
Professional golf is officially making its return to West Maui with the arrival of the LPGA’s 2027 LOTTE Championship. Driven by the dedicated leadership and vision of TY Management and Kapalua Golf, this fresh chapter brings championship play back to the shores of Kapalua.
For local families and small business owners, welcoming professional golf back is about much more than what happens on the scorecard. The event represents a vital boost to Maui’s economy—a wave of commerce that directly uplifts local businesses, fills neighborhood restaurants and supports hospitality workers.

Beyond driving everyday retail and dining activity, the event also benefits West Maui’s broader economy. With a competitive field of 120 elite players and over 2,000 nights expected to be booked at local hotels, the tournament generates immediate, high-volume demand across the hospitality and tourism sectors. At the same time, returning professional golf to Kapalua restores a crucial funding pipeline for local nonprofits. By driving the effort to bring professional golf back to West Maui, TY Management has helped generate funds for the organizations that care for our residents.
“We are grateful to TY Management for bringing the LPGA back to Kapalua,” said Sne Patel, President of the LahainaTown Action Committee. “Welcoming these world-class athletes will showcase West Maui on a global stage, support our local businesses and share the aloha that makes our community so special.”
