The ActewAGL Canberra Classic was a golf tournament co-sanctioned by the Australian Ladies Professional Golf Tour and the Ladies European Tour. First played in 2009 as a pro-am, it was always held at the Royal Canberra Golf Club in Canberra, ACT, Australia.[1] It was a 54-hole tournament played over three days, with a pro-am taking place the day before.[2]

History

[edit]

Sarah Kemp won the pro-am in 2009, and Kristie Smith won the inaugural title in 2010 by two strokes ahead of Katherine Hull.[3] In 2011, Queensland amateur Ashley Ona won the title, and in 2012 Karen Lunn won, for her first major tournament victory in 22 years on home soil in Australia.[4][5]
