The Amundi Evian Championship is the youngest of the five women’s majors, but who have been the winners in its short history?
The tournament’s history actually dates back to 1994. It began life as the Evian Masters on the Ladies European Tour. However, it was not until 2013 that it was awarded major championship status.
Since then, there has not been a repeat winner of the tournament, which is held every year at the Evian Resort in Evian-les-Bains in France.
Prior to the 2024 edition, there had been 11 winners of the Amundi Evian Championship. Between them, eight nationalities were represented.
In 2024, Ayaka Furue won by one shot from Stephanie Kyriacou.
