Mark your calendars for November 28th as the golf industry gathers at Foxhills to celebrate the remarkable achievements of women at the third annual Women in Golf Awards.
With nominations now open across eight categories, this event aims to shine a spotlight on the contributions of women at every stage of their careers in golf.
The nomination window closes at midnight on September 30th, so there’s no time to waste in recognising those who make a difference.
The awards feature a wide range of categories, each supported by a sponsor from within the golf community:
- Unsung Hero – Sponsored by England Golf
- Brand of the Year – Sponsored by the British Golf Industry Association (BGIA)
- International Woman – Sponsored by Perry Ellis
- Women’s Initiative – Sponsored by PING

Nicole Wheatley, co-founder of the Women in Golf Awards, emphasises the significance of these awards in bringing attention to the outstanding contributions of women in the industry: “The Women in Golf Awards unearth incredible stories and introduce us to just some of the remarkable women working across the industry,”
“If you know a woman who is making a significant impact in the role that they hold, inspires you and others, or deserves acknowledgement for their contribution to golf then please take the time to nominate her.
Creating visibility of women excelling in their fields will encourage more to take up a career in golf.
This is important because becoming more diverse will reap benefits for the industry as a whole.”
The nomination process is straightforward: head over to www.womeningolfawards.co.uk to submit your nomination before the September 30th deadline.
You’ll need to provide not only the reasons for your nomination but also specific examples of the impact your nominee has made in her field.
A distinguished judging panel will then review the nominations and select three finalists for each category.
These finalists will be invited to the awards ceremony at Foxhills on November 28th, where the winners will be announced.
For those interested in attending, the ballot for free tickets is open through the official website.
Additionally, a limited number of heavily subsidized tickets will be available for purchase starting in October.
Don’t miss the chance to be part of this inspiring event that celebrates diversity and excellence in golf.
