The LET Access Series has revealed a bumper 2021 schedule featuring 14 events in 7 different countries and more prize money than 2020.
Players on the LET Access Series, the feeder tour for the Ladies European Tour, will have the opportunity to compete for a prize fund of €552,500, a massive increase of €220,000 on the purse for the 2020 season.
Featuring talented golfers from across 25 countries, the entire season will take place in Europe between May and October.
Sweden will take the bulk of the events with five tournaments set to take place across the county, and the tour will also visit the Czech Republic, France, Belgium, Italy, Switzerland, and Spain.
The season is set to get underway at the PGA Championship by Trelleborgs Kommun in Sweden between May 27 to 29 and will finish at the Santander Golf Tour – LETAS in Spain between October 20 to 22.
Last season Finland’s Tiia Koivisto was crowned LETAS Order of Merit Champion after claiming her maiden LETAS title at the Amundi Czech Ladies Challenge and securing a runner-up finish and two top-5s from five starts.
The top six players on the 2021 LETAS Order of Merit will earn membership of the Ladies European Tour for the 2022 season, while players finishing in sixth to 20th positions will progress to the final stage of LET Tour School.
Speaking about the announcement Alexandra Armas, LET Chief Executive Officer, said: “We are extremely excited to announce the 2021 schedule for the LET Access Series and delighted to bring some good news to the players and supporters of the tour. With 14 events on this year’s schedule, it looks set to be a great year for the Access Series and it will continue to provide greater competitive opportunities with the potential to progress onto the Ladies European Tour. The LET is dedicated to supporting our members and growing the game of golf to new and existing markets and we are proud to confirm the release of this schedule. I would like to thank our sponsors, partners and all the federations that have shown their belief, vision and perseverance.”
Meanwhile, Sofia Pettersson of the Swedish Golf Tour said: “The Swedish Golf Federation is looking forward to hosting five tournaments on the LETAS schedule in 2021. It means a great deal to Swedish players, especially young players in the beginning of their professional careers, to get the chance to play in international tournaments. I’m very grateful for the host venues that put a lot of hard work and resources into contributing to women’s golf.”
