- Organised by Golf Saudi, the Aramco Championship will take place April 2–5 at the ultra-exclusive MGM Resorts-owned Shadow Creek
- $4m prize fund to be contested by the world’s best women golfers at the stellar tournament co-sanctioned by the LET and LPGA
- Moving between global sporting hubs, the Series travels from Riyadh to Las Vegas to showcase Saudi Arabia’s growing golfing ecosystem
Having opened the season in spectacular fashion with Charley Hull’s pulsating win in Riyadh last month, the PIF Global Series switches to another global sporting epicentre in Las Vegas, with the April 2-5 Aramco Championship staged at the ultra-exclusive Shadow Creek.
After a four-tournament swing in Australia, the Ladies European Tour (LET) will pick up in Nevada where a $4m prize purse will be on offer for the world’s best women players in a Golf Saudi-organised event which has the privilege of being co-sanctioned by the LET and LPGA tours.
Thailand’s World No. 1 Jeeno Thitikul, second-ranked American Nelly Korda and World No. 3 Hull of England will headline a stellar field at Shadow Creek that currently includes all of the top 10 players in the Rolex Rankings, and 19 of the top 20. It is the strongest field ever assembled for a PIF Global Series event.
The iconic Tom Fazio-designed Shadow Creek course has hosted several eye-catching events over the years including the LPGA Match Play since 2021 and becomes the first PIF Global Series tournament in the Western United States after previous outings in New York, Florida and last year in Texas.
After the opening events in Riyadh and Las Vegas, the PIF Global Series is also scheduled for London, Seoul and Shenzhen on the 2026 LET calendar. Each tournament highlights the work of Golf Saudi through clinics, workshops and discussion panels, bringing new audiences to the sport and showcasing the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia’s burgeoning golfing culture.
England’s Hull opened her 2026 Ladies European Tour campaign on the PIF Global Series by winning the PIF Saudi Ladies International by one stroke at Riyadh Golf Club last month.
Golf Saudi Ambassador Carlota Ciganda said: “Golf Saudi has chosen a great venue and partner to host the second event on the PIF Global Series. It’s a big step forward for the Series, bringing the LET and LPGA together on one of the most iconic stages in golf. Competing at a course like Shadow Creek, where players want to test themselves, is incredibly important for the continued growth of women’s golf.
“Shadow Creek is a hard course; it will create some exciting challenges and opportunities. I think it’s going to be a great event for both the players and the fans watching around the world.”
Shadow Creek is a charismatic masterpiece of golf architecture. The 7,560-yard course is a lush sanctuary of rolling fairways, winding brooks, and dramatic waterfalls, in sharp contrast to the surrounding Nevada landscape and a mere 20-minute drive from the Las Vegas Strip.
Since opening in 1989, Shadow Creek has received global acclaim, including being ranked No. 1 in Nevada by Golf Digest since 1991, earning a top-three position in the 2025/26 100 Greatest Public Courses, and being ranked in the top 10 of Golfweek’s Best 2025: Top 100 public-access courses in the U.S.
