AIG Women’s Open Live Stream: Live Stream 2023
None of those currently ranked in the top 10 have won the Women’s Open. Well, none in the top 14 actually, as Georgia Hall (15th) and defending champion Ashleigh Buhai (17th) are the highest-ranked past winners. A huge hike in prize money this year means the winner will get $1,095,000.
To make sure you miss none of the action, below are all the streaming and broadcast details on how to watch an AIG Woman’s Open Live Stream from wherever you are, as well as today’s tee times.
Unlike its male counterparts, the Women’s Open venues are not limited to links courses. In its 151 editions, the men have only ventured to 14 clubs. In its previous 46 editions, the Women’s Open has rocked up at 19 clubs, and this year it adds a 20th in Walton Heath.
This, is part, reflects the fact that the Women’s Open was once not nearly as prestigious as it has become; indeed it only became a Women’s Major in 2001. Part of its raised profile has come through sponsorship and a resultant increase in prize money. Martin Slumbers, Chief Executive of The R&A, is keen to highlight that “this year the players will be competing for $7.3 million, which is an increase of 26% on last year, and also sees the total investment into the prize fund increase by just over $4million or 125% since The R&A and AIG began our partnership in 2019.”
Walton Heath, which has hosted the men’s European tour and the Ryder Cup, has two courses, Old and New. The Women’s Open will be played over a composite layout with 16 holes from the Old and two from the New: the Old’s 1st and 3rd are omitted, and the New’s 12th and 13th included. The result is a par 71 of 6,649 yards. The way to success on most heathland courses is to keep out of the heather, but when Walton Heath hosted US Open qualifying earlier this year, competitors remarked on how tricky the greens here had been to read. So it sounds as if the winner is going to be one who hits it straight and putts it true.
