The world’s best women golfers will gather in the spectacular surroundings of Évian-les-Bains in France from 21–24 July to contest The Amundi Evian Championship, the only major championship  played in continental Europe. Rolex, a partner of the event for more than 20 years, will once again be present as Official Timekeeper.

 

Among the past winners returning to play at The Amundi Evian Championship is Rolex Testimonee Lydia Ko.

 

Speaking ahead of this week’s competition, Ko said:

 

“Having enjoyed success in my amateur days and winning my first Major here in 2015, the Amundi Evian Championship will always be very special to me. Playing at the Evian Resort Golf Club is always a highlight of the season due to its spectacular setting and the unique atmosphere at the Championship thanks to the whole city of Évian-les-Bains which turns out to provide its support. I am looking forward to experiencing this unique atmosphere again and competing against some of the leading players in the world.”
