Women's Amateur Asia-Pacific

The Women's Amateur Asia-Pacific was founded in 2018 by The R&A and the Asia-Pacific Golf Confederation, to create an event corresponding to The Womens Amateur Championship and U.S. Women's Amateur for Asia, analogous to the Asia-Pacific Amateur Championship for men.[1] It was one of the "elite" tournaments in the World Amateur Golf Ranking.[2]
