The New Zealand Women’s Golf Open has received a major boost with the announcement that the 2010 event will be played near Christchurch at a new course with a new naming sponsor. The Pegasus New Zealand Women’s Open will be staged at the new Pegasus Golf Course near Christchurch, with naming sponsorship from the company developing the town.

After a successful inaugural Open this year, the new partnership between Pegasus and Christchurch City Council will result in the Open being elevated to full co-sanctioned status between the Ladies European Tour (LET) and the Australian Ladies Professional Golf (ALPG).The Pegasus New Zealand Women’s Open, which will carry a prize purse of approx NZ$415,000, will be held on 25-28 February. It will form part of a three-tournament swing for the LET including the Australian Women’s Open and the ANZ Ladies Masters in Queensland.

New Zealand Golf believes the announcement is the most important step for the development of women’s golf in this country.
