The Golf Saudi-backed season opener and the first of five marquee PIF Global Series events spread across the LET’s global calendar, the PIF Saudi Ladies International has attracted a host of major champions, 11 Golf Saudi ambassadors, while Singapore’s Shannon Tan, the 2025 LET Order of Merit winner, makes her 2026 competitive return.
Central to the tournament will be Go Golf, Golf Saudi’s development program designed to demystify the game for all ages. Through interactive clinics and “have-a-go” sessions, the initiative will introduce hundreds of beginners to the basics of the swing in a pressure-free environment.
Building on the momentum of 2025, in which Jeeno Thitikul claimed a historic victory with a record 16-under total, the 2026 edition features a field that elevates the event to new levels. The presence of world-class players from the LET and LPGA reinforces the tournament’s position as a major event of the international season.
