First round Thursday, March 30, 2017 Friday, March 31, 2017 Due to high winds, play was suspended at 3:16 pm

Second round Friday, March 31, 2017 Saturday, April 1, 2017 Third round Saturday, April 1, 2017 With six holes remaining in the final round on Sunday, Thompson was notified by officials that she had been retroactively issued two penalties on her third round score. Several weeks later on April 25, the
USGA and
The R&A issued Decision 34-3/10, which was effective immediately. It limits the use of video evidence if the infraction "can't be seen with the naked eye", or the player had done "all that can be reasonably expected to make an accurate estimation or measurement" in order to correctly play or spot their ball, even if video evidence suggests otherwise. Although the sanctioning bodies stated that this was part of an effort to update and modernize the
Rules of Golf, media outlets considered the ruling to be a response to this incident (as well as a separate incident from the
U.S. Women's Open in
2016), going as far as nicknaming it the "Lexi Thompson rule."
Final round Sunday, April 2, 2017 After a bogey at the 12th hole to fall to 16-under, Thompson was notified by officials of the four-stroke penalty as she walked to the 13th tee; this lowered her score to 12-under, two strokes behind Lee. Both Thompson and Ryu birdied the final hole to finish at the top of the leaderboard at 274 (−14).
