Charley Hull shares her perspective on the growth of the PIF Global Series and the expanding landscape of elite women’s golf during the 2026 PIF Saudi Ladies International, after her victory in Riyadh 

“Competing in London always brings special energy, and Centurion Club is a course that challenges every part of your game. It’s been exciting to see the continued growth of the PIF Global Series, from the great venues we compete at to the global platform the events now have. With so many of the world’s top players in the field, winning here takes something truly special and is a big deal,” Charley Hull.

Centurion Club’s demanding routing, transitioning from tight, pine-forested opening holes to sweeping, exposed woodland stretches, has historically provided the ultimate test for the game’s finest tacticians. With the field cutting to the top 60 professionals and ties after 36 holes, the tournament promises a thrilling, high-stakes weekend showcase of individual excellence.

The PIF London Championship has become a mainstay of the LET calendar with the first edition staged in 2021. Past winners include Solheim Cup stars Bronte Law and Leona Maguire, as well as world number one Nelly Korda, and this year’s tournament ends the LET’s UK summer swing.

LET CEO Tom Phillips said: “The PIF London Championship has become a cornerstone of the LET schedule, and we’re excited for the sixth edition of the tournament in August. Thank you to our partners Golf Saudi for enabling our players to compete at the highest level across world-class venues such as Centurion Club, where LET players will showcase their talents in the summer.”

Central to this year’s championship is the continued commitment of the Public Investment Fund (PIF), the investment engine driving the economic and social transformation of Saudi Arabia. Through the PIF Global Series, the fund serves as a pivotal catalyst for the international growth of women’s professional sports, leveraging strategic investments to bridge global sports ecosystems and foster long-term, sustainable development for elite athletes worldwide.

Beyond the ropes, the championship experience has been elevated to mirror the premium trajectory of the series. Golf Saudi will be hosting a signature grassroots initiative, including interactive youth development zones, work to cultivate a vibrant, inclusive future for the next generation of golf athletes across the world. Be part of a landmark moment for women’s professional sports. Tickets for the PIF London Championship at Centurion Club are now officially on sale.
