LPGA event in Beijing postponed

THE Reignwood Pine Valley LPGA Classic in China has been postponed due to “a date conflict” and will not take place in Beijing in October, the LPGA Tour announced on Thursday.

It had been scheduled for October 1-4.

However, the Tour said the decision would not impact the long-term future of the tournament, with an extension of the agreement being finalized for two more years, beginning in 2016.

“While we’re disappointed that we will not be in Beijing this Fall, we’re excited that Reignwood is committed to this wonderful international Reignwood LPGA Classic event for two more years,” said LPGA Commissioner Michael Whan.

The postponement leaves the 2015 LPGA schedule with just one event in China’s mainland, the October 29-November 1 Blue Bay LPGA at Hainan Island, which will be part of a five-week LPGA Asian swing that will also include tournaments in Malaysia, South Korea, Taiwan and Japan.
