<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\nHis Excellency Yasir Al-Rumayyan, Chairman of the Saudi Golf Federation<\/a> and Golf Saudi<\/a>, said:<\/strong> \u201cThis is fantastic news for global sport, for women\u2019s golf and for Saudi Arabia. Following the success of the Aramco Saudi Ladies International, we are committed to building the women\u2019s game and promoting female participation in sport in Saudi Arabia. I hope this series inspires people of all cultures and backgrounds to take up the sport and generate enthusiasm for the great game of golf.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n The first of the four tournaments will take place in New York, followed by one in London and Singapore before culminating in a season finale at the Royal Greens and Country Club in Jeddah.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Ahmed A. Al-Subaey, Aramco Vice President of Marketing, Sales & Supply Planning, said: <\/strong>\u201cAramco played a leading role in bringing golf to Saudi Arabia and, through our support for women\u2019s golf, we aim to advance gender equality and set the stage for future generations of female sports stars. It is another example of our commitment to diversity and inclusion, which is reflected in our many talented female employees, scientists and engineers. Our sponsorship of this golf series not only raises global awareness of our contribution in this field but will also promote positive values associated with the sport among communities in Saudi Arabia and around the world.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n Thefour tournaments sponsored by Aramco will form an important part of a record-breaking LET schedule, which is set to be announced in the coming weeks. Teams of four will compete in the tournaments, each one played over 54 holes. Captains will recruit one fellow Tour pro through a draft system similar to the NFL and NBA. Another Tour professional will be selected at random, while all teams will include one amateur player. Prize money for the winning team will be split between its three pro members.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Ladies European Tour CEO, Alexandra Armas, said<\/strong>: \u201cToday marks the beginning of a new journey in the history of the Ladies European Tour. This brand new Aramco Team Series takes golf and the sport to a whole new level and I am incredibly excited by all four events. Last November, the LET made history in bringing the first-ever professional women\u2019s golf event to Saudi Arabia, and this announcement only builds on that<\/em>. By adding four new team events to our schedule for 2021, the Ladies European Tour will add a whole new dynamic for both the players competing and the spectators, taking golf to newly engaged audiences across the globe.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n The Aramco Team Series picks up where last November\u2019s teams event left off, being the first ever regular tour event where scores of amateur competitors have a direct bearing on the final result.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Aramco is a global integrated energy and chemicals company.
