May 2026 Player of the Month shortlist

Denmark’s Smilla Tarning Soenderby won the inaugural edition of the MCB Ladies Classic – Mauritius at the stunning Constance Belle Mare Plage. With her mum Kirsten alongside her for the first time as a professional, the Dane rolled in birdies on the 15^th and 18^th holes to seal her second LET title.

Expert opinion: “Playing in paradise, your mum on the bag for the first time on the LET, a player in the top 50 in the world trying to stop you, and all while battling the mental demons you’ve spoken so openly about. Smilla Soenderby conquered all at the MCB Ladies Classic – Mauritius. Almost three years after her first LET win and in the stunning setting by the Indian ocean with mother Kirsten by her side, she delivered a champion’s performance.”

Leonie Harm clinched her first LET title in style rolling in birdies on the 17^th and 18^th holes on the North Course at Green Eagle Golf Courses to win on home soil in Hamburg. The German star has a story for the ages having survived a car crash, overcome bereavement, worked in vaccine development and nearly quit professional golf at the end of 2024.

Expert opinion: “If winning is about the journey, no-one can come close to the one travelled by Leonie Harm. Her life story may be remarkable, her performance at the tough Green Eagle at the Amundi German Masters was spectacular. A display that highlighted her resilience and talent sealing the victory in style with birdies at 17 and 18. Leonie Harm was truly the home heroine in Hamburg.”

17-year-old Anna Huang put her name into the LET history books once again in May winning the Lalla Meryem Cup. After a final round of 66 (-7), she became the youngest player to win three LET tournaments surpassing the previous record set by Lydia Ko. The Canadian teenager also recorded a T3 finish at the Amundi German Masters.  

Expert opinion: “History was made in May. Anna Huang became the youngest player to win three LET events with her victory in Morocco. The 17-year-old came from six shots back to clinch the Lalla Meryem Cup, adding a win to her T3 in Germany and her qualification to the U.S. Women’s Open at Riviera.”

Germany’s Helen Briem returned to the winner’s circle in style securing the biggest margin of victory so far on the LET in 2026. The 20-year-old carded rounds of 69-65-67 to win by seven shots in France – her second LET title – and secure her place at the 2026 Amundi Evian Championship.

Expert opinion: “Helen Briem reigned supreme in the mountains of Evian with a dominant seven-shot victory at the Jabra Ladies Open de France. The German youngster flies up the rankings to 12^th thanks to the second win of her LET career.”
