Like the World Corporate Golf Challenge (from October 28th to November 1st, 2024, Haikou Mission Hills Golf Club), the Aramco Team Series, presented by PIF and organized by Golf Saudi, will bring an important golf tournament to a Chinese golf venue this year.
The Aramco Team Series, presented by PIF and organized by Golf Saudi, has confirmed Mission Hills Resort in Shenzhen today as its fourth stop of the season.
Mission Hills Resort Shenzhen is located in the heart of southern China’s Guangdong Province and is renowned as the world’s largest golf facility.
It boasts 12 golf courses, making it one of golf’s premier global destinations. The Ladies European Tour (LET) returns to mainland China for the first time in over seven years.
A cornerstone of the LET, the second Asian leg of the 2024 Aramco Team Series presented by PIF will tee off on the World Cup Course (a Jack Nicklaus-designed course) at Mission Hills Resort in the city of Shenzhen from October 4 to 6.
The golfers will bid to win individual and team trophies and a share of the weekend’s USD 1 million prize fund.
Organized by Golf Saudi, the Aramco Team Series presented by PIF is a series of five events on the LET yearly, adding an annual USD 5 million in prize money.
The series heads to Shenzhen in October after this season’s events in Florida, Seoul, and London. The final leg of the season is set for November in Riyadh.
Some questions
Deloitte predicts that women’s elite sports will generate global revenues of US$1.28 billion in 2024 (£1.02 billion).
This is the first time that annual global revenues for women’s sport will have surpassed US$1 billion.
Can we say
- Women’s golf primed for growth & expansion?
- Expansion is not only possible in women’s golf, but it’s attainable – and the returns are significant?
- Brands have a unique opportunity to step in and change the trajectory of the industry for the better?
