Women’s golf returns to New Korea Country Club this October as the Aramco Korea Championship enters a new era of competition. From October 8-11, 120 professionals will take on four rounds of individual stroke play, with the tournament bringing a 2 million prize fund and valuable Rolex World Rankings and LET Order of Merit points into play.

The field is already starting to take shape, with Danielle Kang and Alison Lee among the first confirmed names. More players are expected to join the lineup ahead of the tournament.

The biggest change is on the scorecard. This year’s championship moves to a full 72-hole format, putting four days of golf between the players and the trophy. There is less room for a bad round, fewer chances to recover and plenty of time for the leaderboard to shift.

With the PIF Global Series spotlight on the event, the championship is set for four days of high-level women’s golf in Korea. 120 players. 72 holes. 2 million on the line.
