The Ladies Philippine Golf Tour (LPGT) continues to break new ground as it co-hosts the final leg of the Korean LPGA Dream Tour’s first-ever overseas competitions, set to take place in two weeks.

The ICTSI Worldwide Link Philippine Ladies Masters 2025, slated 12 to 14 February at The Country Club in Sta. Rosa, Laguna, boasts a prize fund of $200,000 and features a strong field of 132 players, including 50 standout competitors from the Korean LPGT Dream Tour and the LPGA of Taiwan (TLPGA) and 32 players from the LPGT.

The historic 54-hole championship will showcase the finest Filipina golfers, including Harmie Constantino, Daniella Uy, Chanelle Avaricio, Mikha Fortuna, Mafy Singson, Marvi Monsalve, Florence Bisera, Chihiro Ikeda, Sarah Ababa and Manila-based Korean sensation Jiwon Lee.

Leading talents from Thailand are also expected to join, promising a high-stakes clash of skills, mental fortitude and finesse on a course designed to challenge even the best.

The event is a joint effort between the KLPGA, LPGT and TLPGA, making it a truly international showcase of talent. The tournament also serves as the second leg of the TLPGA circuit for the season, further elevating its significance on the tour calendar.

KLPGA CEO Lee Young-mi expressed her excitement about this groundbreaking collaboration:

“The KLPGA has established itself as a golf hub in Asia and is making a leap into a global tour. This event marks a significant milestone for the KLPGA, and we will do our utmost to ensure its success, providing a platform for players to excel and for the KLPGA to grow into a truly global tour.”

For its part, the LPGT welcomes its co-hosting of a KLPGA with Colo Ventosa, general manager of Pilipins Golf Tournaments Inc., co-organizer of the event, highlighting the tour’s commitment to advancing women’s golf in the country.

“This partnership reinforces our mission to develop and elevate Philippine ladies’ professional golf to new heights,” said Ventosa.

Since its partnership with the TLPGA in 2015, the LPGT has steadily expanded its reach, culminating in the successful staging of LPGT tournaments in Taiwan from 2018 onwards.
