What is the history around the Rose Ladies Series?
The Rose Ladies Series began during the COVID-19 pandemic. Kate and Justin Rose were the duo behind the series, which was introduced to provide female golfers with a route back on to the course during the lockdowns in the United Kingdom.
2020 was the first season of the competition, with eight events taking place. Charley Hull won the Order of Merit, just pipping Georgia Hall to the title.
The schedule expanded to 11 one-day competitions in 2021, before reducing into a five-day series for both 2022 and 2023 thanks to the resumption of both the Ladies European Tour and the LPGA Tour.
The 2024 schedule also features five events, which will take place over the course of a two-week spell in mid-April.
There have been some incredible courses that have played host to the Rose Ladies Series, including Royal St George’s, Royal Birkdale and Hillside among the five great venues for the 2024 schedule.
Who has won on the Rose Ladies Series?
Some incredible talented stars have been successful over its four year history.
From Hull and Hall battling it out over the inaugural series, to Gabriella Cowley winning three of the 11 events that took place in 2021, there have been some great names.
Meghan MacLaren, Alice Hewson, Gemma Dryburgh and Hayley Davis have all been victorious. Rachel Gourley won at Walton Heath in 2022, becoming the first (and to date, the only) amateur to have been a winner in the competition to date.
How much will the winner take home from each Rose Ladies Series event?
The winner of every one-day event in the 2024 calendar will win £10,000.

Mention a European country, and Matt will tell you which resorts make the National Club Golfer Top 100s: European Resorts list. He might even throw in who designed the golf course and how many rooms the hotel has got at each one…
Matt got into the game of golf from a young age, following his old man to the local golf club. He fell for the sport, and now can’t seem to go a day without thinking about how to improve his game (Thanks Dad!). Matt has been a member of Howley Hall GC in Leeds since 2020, and is just about managing to maintain a single-figure handicap. He likes to remind people that he once broke 75, but won’t tell people that it was on a shortened course during the winter.
He moved to Leeds after graduating from the University of Central Lancashire with a First Class Honours degree in Sports Journalism. Matt joined NCG after almost five years travelling the world with the Professional Squash Association, working on events in all four corners of the globe.
Matt currently plays a Cobra King LTDx driver and RadSpeed 3-wood. TaylorMade monopolise the rest of his bag, with a SIM UDI, M5 irons and both Milled Grind and HI-TOE wedges, along with a Monza Redline putter. He uses a Vice Pro Plus golf ball, because he’s a bit different…
Away from golf, Matt is a Manchester United fan, and a keen runner, having ran the Rob Burrow Leeds Marathon (his first and possibly last), in May 2023.
