Amundi thus joins the tournament\u2019s Sponsors\u2019 Club. This partnership will enable the tournament to build even more international strength to serve women\u2019s golf globally. In fact, beginning with the 2021 edition, the prize purse will be increased to 4.5 million dollars. A rise of $400,000 that confirms the position of the women\u2019s major as one of the world\u2019s top women\u2019s golf tournaments, alongside the US Women\u2019s Open and the AIG Women\u2019s Open.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cOur partnership with Amundi strengthens our global ambitions,\u201d Franck Riboud is pleased to say. \u201cWe launched the Evian Masters in 1994 and in 2013 the tournament was renamed The Evian Championship<\/a> upon becoming one of the major championships in women\u2019s golf. Today, the fact that Amundi joins us, in such unusual times, once again reaffirms the Major\u2019s appeal. It enables us to further develop the tournament\u2019s global strength and improve in all areas in order to provide the players and the international golfing world with a tournament that is unique, and one which has – I believe – proven its ability to endlessly reinvent itself and become a benchmark. I am truly delighted that Amundi is joining us, alongside Rolex, evian\u00ae…. and I take this opportunity to thank all of our sponsors, themselves world leaders in their field, for their steadfast commitment by our side!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This partnership is perfectly in line with Amundi\u2019s DNA, which through its presence in the world of golf since 2011, shares the values conveyed by this sport – those of precision, consistency, expertise and performance \u2013 with its customers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe are delighted to become the title sponsor for this great tournament in women\u2019s sport that is The Evian Championship. The tournament\u2019s global reach will benefit Amundi, in particular in Asia, an important region for our company which has made it an essential component for its growth,\u201d says Yves Perrier. \u201cWe are committed over the next 5 years to supporting Europe\u2019s women golfers to enable them to emerge onto the international golf scene. Equal opportunity is indeed one of Amundi\u2019s core values.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Amundi Evian Championship 2021 will be held from 22 to 25 July on the course at the Evian Resort Golf Club (Evian-les-Bains, France).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
