Rose Ladies Series

The Rose Ladies Series is a one-off ladies professional golf tour played in 2020 and organised by Justin Rose and his wife, Kate Rose. The tour was announced following the reintroduction of golf in the United Kingdom after the COVID-19 pandemic lockdowns and during a period in which the Ladies European Tour was suspended as a result of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on professional golf. The introduction of the series was also heavily influenced by Ladies European Tour member, Liz Young.[1][2]

Each of the tournaments consisted of a single round competition with a two-day grand final and were being played behind close doors. The tournaments were funded by Justin and Kate Rose with sponsorship being provided by American Golf and Computacenter and the players paying an entry fee to compete in each tournament.[3]

Media coverage of the tournaments was provided by Sky Sports.[4]
