Briana Chacon Takes Home Second Career Epson Tour Win at the 2025 IOA Championship
presented by Morongo Casino Resort and Spa
After a thrilling 18 holes of play at the IOA Championship presented by Morongo Casino Resort and Spa,
the Epson Tour has crowned a new champion for the 2025 season. Briana Chacon started the day two
shots behind the 36-hole leader, Hailee Cooper, who was in search of her first Epson Tour victory. Chacon
carded a 6-under 66 to win her second career Epson Tour victory, adding to her win at the 2024 Atlantic
Beach Classic presented by Access Golf.
The final round started off clean for the now two-time champion, making three pars to start the round
before going on a tear in her closing six holes on the front nine to put herself into contention at the turn.
Five birdies in the last six holes moved Chacon to 11-under for the tournament and into a tie for the
lead.
A bogey followed shortly after the barrage of birdies, with Chacon dropping her first shot of the day on
hole 10. A bounce-back birdie came on the par-four 12th before she dropped another shot on the par three 15th.
Entering the last three holes, Chacon was one shot behind Megan Schofill, the clubhouse leader. She
only needed to make one birdie over the last few holes, and the pressure was on. The 23-year-old
answered with a birdie on the gettable par-five 16th and then followed it up with another birdie on the
par-three 17th after sticking it close. Chacon headed into 18 with a one-shot lead and hit two solid shots,
hitting the middle of the fairway and the middle of the green. The two-putt was all she needed to seal
her second career victory on the Epson Tour.
“It feels great. It’s a huge honor. Just been trying to get the first win of the season, you know, trying to
live up to last season. It was a great week and I’m super, super excited,” explained Chacon after her
victory. “I’m just going to take this win as momentum, build off this confidence that I have this week, and
keep going and just keep finishing strong. Most of all, just try to finish strong at the end of the year.”
