Mission Hills er stedet
Det blir noe å glede seg til for LET-damene til våren. I mars blir det kamp om

Her er meldingen fra LET:
ONE MILLION DOLLAR EVENT ANNOUNCED
The Ladies European Tour schedule in 2013 will feature a one million dollar
event as the World Ladies Championship in China has significantly raised the
prize fund for the second edition.
The tournament will be played March 7-10 at Mission Hills Resort in Haikou,
Hainan, with the purse increased from $600,000 to $1 million US dollars.
The unique tournament features an individual strokeplay element, with an
$800,000 US prize fund and a team competition with a purse of $200,000.
Players can qualify for the event based on the world rankings, China LPGA Tour
and Ladies European Tour order of merits. All participants in the tournament
will get to compete for individual prize money.
The country teams will be made up of the two highest ranked players in the field
and their individual scores will be added for the team event.
The first edition of the World Ladies Championship was a great success, played
on a world class venue and a very strong competitive field of 108 players from
23 countries represented in the individual event and 19 teams representing their
countries. In 2012 the individual event was won by Feng Shanshan and China won
the overall team event represented by Feng and Yiling Ye.
Feng said: “I am really looking forward to defending at Mission Hills Resort
Haikou as I really enjoyed the inaugural edition. It was such a successful week
for me winning in front of my home fans and I have many great memories so
hopefully I can retain both titles next year.”
The Ladies European Tour’s Executive Director Alexandra Armas commented: “I am
thrilled to announce this prize fund increase as it really serves to demonstrate
what a quality tournament this is and how successful the inaugural event was in
2012. Mission Hills Resort Haikou is the perfect venue to stage an event of this
magnitude, with fantastic golf courses, luxury hotels and fabulous entertainment
and all of the services you would expect from a first class resort. The players
all thoroughly enjoyed the experience and I would like to thank Mr Tenniel Chu
for making everyone feel so welcome and for his highly valued support of women’s
professional golf.”
