Held from the 13th until the 16th of May at the course in Gut Haeusern near
Munich, this year’s Ladies German Open, one of the most popular tournaments of
the Ladies European Tour, will appear with a new name: UniCredit Ladies German
Open 2010 presented by Audi. But the demand for the high quality of this
prestigious event remains the same. The incentive for the 120 professionals of
the LET could again be improved this year. The prize money is increased up to
330.000 €. Besides the winner’s cheque of approx. 50.000 €, the new Ladies
German Open Champion will get an additional Audi A5 Convertible. Furthermore
Audi will spend an Audi R8 Spyder for the professional who succeeds in a
hole-in-one at the 15th hole.
Due to these improvements tournament director Nikolaus Peltzer is in a good
mood to attract a similar strong field. A field comprising 48 of the 50 best
players of the LET presented ladies golf of the top-class for more than 21.000
spectators last year.
Laura Davies, the most popular British golf player has already confirmed her
attendance. She is considered as the most accomplished English female golfer of
modern times. She is unique with her participation in all ten Solheim Cup teams
since the incention.
After the thrilling battle between Jade Schaeffer from France and Paula Marti
Zambrano from Spain last year both players will be keen to repeat their success
in 2010.
Also the established tournament ambassador Martina Eberl from Germany will
try to live up to the success of last year’s third place. Besides the
German Anja Monke, who will play this tournament for the third time, a new
German player will tee up in Gut Haeusern. Caroline Masson, new member of the
UniCredit Golf Team won the qualifying school of the Ladies European Tour and
makes her debut as a professional at the UniCredit Ladies German Open presented
by Audi.
The repeated cooperation with Sky enables all those spectators who cannot
experience the event personally to watch the highlights of the tournament daily
on TV.
