The LPGA and LET announced today that Velocity Global (https://velocityglobal.co
m/?utm_source=pressrelease&utm_medium=pr&utm_campaign=public-relations) , the
Official Global Work Platform of both Tours, will sponsor the Velocity Global
Impact Award. This honor will celebrate players who have helped to grow the
sport of golf and to inspire the next generation of athletes to have a positive
impact on the world.

Throughout each season, the LPGA and LET will celebrate players and their
efforts in giving back to the world and their local communities off the golf
course. Toward the end of each season, the LPGA will produce a list of nominees,
and the Velocity Global Impact Award Committee will name three players as
finalists for the Velocity Global Impact Award. Each finalist will be featured
in a docuseries-style content piece sharing their personal story and impact on
the game. The winner will be determined through a combination of a fan vote and
voting by the committee. The winner will be announced annually on International
Women's Day, March 8.

"The Velocity Global Impact Award provides a new avenue to not only recognize
the overwhelming contributions made by female golfers in advancing the game but
also offers us the opportunity to celebrate the significant positive impacts
they make in their communities at home and around the world," said Sarah Fern,
Chief People Officer at Velocity Global. "We are thrilled to partner with LPGA
and LET to highlight the many amazing women in professional golf who truly
personify greatness in sport."
