+++ The all-electric BMW i5 and BMW i7 are this year’s Hole-in-One Awards at the BMW Ladies Championship +++ World-class field at Seowon Valley Country Club (KOR) will have more chances this weekend for the perfect shot +++ Three luxury cars have been awarded in the tournament's history +++


Seoul.
The BMW Ladies Championship at Seowon Valley Country Club is approaching its halfway point. The second round had to be suspended on Friday due to heavy rain and will resume on Saturday. Since there is no cut in the only tournament of the Ladies Professional Golf Association (LPGA) Tour in South Korea, all 78 players will tee off in the final two rounds. For the field, packed with world-class golfers, the goal is to earn valuable points for the season rankings and world rankings, as well as to claim a significant share of the $2.2 million prize fund. In addition, all 78 golfers still have the chance to win an all-electric premium vehicle. Each round offers two opportunities to win the BMW Hole-in-One Awards; the first ace on the 14th hole will be rewarded with a BMW i5, while a BMW i7 awaits for the perfect shot on the 16th hole.

Both the BMW i7 and BMW i5 are the first all-electric models in their respective series, featuring cutting-edge technology and digital experiences, and take a leading role in the path toward premium electric mobility. Both models are produced at the BMW Group Plant in Dingolfing, Germany, where their electric motors and high-voltage batteries are also manufactured.

In the history of the BMW Ladies Championship, three players have earned a Hole-in-One Award. The first to do so was Kristen Gillman during the inaugural event in 2019. At LPGA International Busan, the 13th hole (Par 3) proved to be her lucky number. From a distance of 164 metres, Gillman holed out with a 4-hybrid, marking the first ace of her professional career and winning a BMW 740Li XDrive.

Three years later, something unparalleled happened at the Oak Valley Country Club. The BMW Group has been involved in international professional golf since 1989, but what occurred at the 2022 BMW Ladies Championship had never been seen before when two Hole-in-One Awards were won on the same day. During round three of the BMW Ladies Championship, South Korean Na Yeon Choi was rewarded for her dream shot on the 12th hole with a BMW X7 xDrive40i. A short while later, cheers rang round the course again, as Thailand’s Ariya Jutanugarn aced the 17th to win a BMW 740i.

Since that ‘Super-Saturday’ in October 2022, no other BMW professional tournament around the world has seen such a spectacular double. The BMW Ladies Championship this weekend continues to hold the possibility of making golf history once again.

CO2 emission information.

Fuel consumption, CO2 emission figures and power consumption and range were measured using the methods required according to Regulation VO (EC) 2007/715 as amended. They refer to vehicles on the German automotive market. For ranges, the NEDC figures take into account differences in the selected wheel and tyre size, while the WLTP figures take into account the effects of any optional equipment.

All figures have already been calculated based on the new WLTP test cycle. NEDC figures listed have been adjusted to the NEDC measurement method where applicable. WLTP values are used as a basis for the assessment of taxes and other vehicle-related duties which are (also) based on CO2 emissions and, where applicable, for the purposes of vehicle-specific subsidies. Further information are available at www.bmw.de/wltp and at www.dat.de/co2/.
