Women's Australian Open

The Women's Australian Open is a women's professional golf tournament played in Australia, operated by Golf Australia and the WPGA Tour of Australasia, long co-sanctioned by the Ladies European Tour (LET).

In 2008, it was the second-richest women's golf tournament on the ALPG Tour, with a prize fund of A$500,000, and was raised to A$600,000 in 2010.

With the co-sanctioning by the LPGA, the total purse was nearly doubled, and was also fixed in U.S. dollars.

Starting in 2000, the Ladies European Tour began co-sanctioning the tournament.
