Women's Golf Tournament for Perth
Perth is to host the Lexus Cup, a top international women’s golf tournament in 2007. This new major sporting event for Western Australia is expected to attract many of the world’s leading female golfers.
It will be played in December at the Novotel Vines Resort and Country Club in the Swan Valley, just a 35-minutes drive from downtown Perth.
Western Australia has also secured the first option to host the Lexus Cup again in 2010 and 2013.
The new event will follow a team match format, similar to the Ryder Cup, fostering the development of top-level women’s golf.
The inaugural Lexus Cup was held in December 2005 in Singapore. An LPGA Tour-sanctioned ladies team event, it puts 12 international players against 12 leading players from Asia. Team members are selected based on their rankings and season earnings, including two captain’s picks and two sponsor’s exemptions.
The Novotel Vines Resort, which is surrounded by wineries, hosted the Johnnie Walker Classic last year, and was home to the Heineken Classic for nine years up until 2001.
Selling Down Under will be featuring Australia’s top golfing resorts in the February/March edition. Make sure you get your online edition by going to register@sellingdownunder.com
