Fire nye turneringer i 2010
LET har kommet med sitt turneringsprogram for 2010. De opplyser at det blir fire
nye turneringer i New Zealand, Marokk, Slovakia og Kina.
Her er pressemeldingen:
Executive Director of the Ladies European Tour (LET), Alexandra Armas, today
announced the tournament schedule for the 2010 season.
There are 27 events in 20 different countries, including four new stops in New
Zealand, Morocco, Slovakia and China. Two additional events, in Turkey and
Scotland, will return to the schedule after a one year absence. This surpasses
the 2009 season when there were 23 tournaments in 18 countries across the world.
The season will start with the inaugural Pegasus New Zealand Women’s Open hosted
by Christchurch at Pegasus Golf Club from February 25-28. The next new event is
the Princess Lalla Meryem Cup at Royal Golf Anfa Mohammedia from March 18-20,
which will take place during the same week as the Hassan II Trophy on the men’s
European Tour.
From May 27-30, the LET will make an historic first visit to Slovakia with the
Ladies Slovak Open at Gray Bear Golf Club. There will also be a second event in
China, the week before the popular Suzhou Taihu Ladies Open. The Anji King
Valley Ladies Open will be played at Anji King Valley Golf Club from October
21-24.
After a one year hiatus, the LET returns to National Golf Club in Antalya for
the Turkish Ladies Open from May 6-9 and to Scotland for the Ladies Scottish
Open, at Archerfield Links in East Lothian, from August 18-20. The Finnair
Masters will take place for the sixth straight year at Helsinki Golf Club in
Tali, Finland, from August 27-29.
Additionally, there will be several new tournament venues. The Women’s
Australian Open moves to Commonwealth Golf Club in Melbourne, the ABN AMRO
Ladies Open moves to Golfclub Broekpolder in Rotterdam, the Netherlands and the
Tenerife Ladies Open returns to Buenavista Golf.
The Ricoh Women’s British Open returns to Royal Birkdale in England, with the
AIB Ladies Irish Open, supported by Failte Ireland, taking place at Killeen
Castle in County Meath the following week. The tournament will provide the only
opportunity for players from both sides of the Atlantic to test their skills on
The 2011 Solheim Cup venue in a competitive environment and expects to draw a
quality field of international competitors from all over the world.
Armas said: “We are extremely pleased with next year’s schedule following on
from a spectacular 2009 season. Despite the tough financial climate, there has
been massive interest in hosting a Ladies European Tour event. The players’
efforts have helped to make every tournament a great experience and have given
value to all stakeholders. The schedule reflects the continued growing interest
in women’s golf.
“There are still some details to be confirmed, such as venues and prize money,
but these will be announced in the coming months and we will be playing at
quality golf courses. We also anticipate that total prize money will be at least
equal to, if not greater, than in 2009. I would like to thank all of our
partners for their continued commitment to the Ladies European Tour and its
players. We look forward to working with all involved to ensure the tour’s
continued success in 2010 and beyond.”
