The Jabra Ladies Open, counting for the LET Access, allows access to the qualifications of the last major of the season “The Evian Championship”, the only one in continental Europe.
The Jabra Ladies Open, born in 2016, joined the LET Access circuit in 2017. The success of the first edition made it possible to develop the endowment of € 50 for 000 to € 2017 in 120 and will see the field of competitors distributed in equal numbers between the members of the LET Access Series and the Ladies European Tour.

The Jabra Ladies Open doubles the chances of qualifying, offering players from five continents the opportunity to secure two sesames for the very select club of players in the fifth and final Major of the season, which will be contested
 from 13 16 September 2018 in Die at the Evian Resort Golf Club.
Because good news never comes alone, the winner of the Jabra Ladies Open will also qualify for the Ricoh Women's British Open 2018 at Royal Lytham and St. Anne's Golf Club in August and receive a one-year exemption for the LET, until the end of 2019.

President Mark Lichtenhein commented: “We are delighted to take the Jabra Ladies Open from a LET Access Series tournament to our first Ladies European Tour Dual Ranking event and could not be more excited to align with Jabra who fully supports our players and our vision for the future. As an organization, we aim to promote and develop global women's golf and enable the best talent to achieve excellence at exceptional events. The Jabra Ladies Open offers a number of opportunities for our members, including a stepping stone for players to experience a first major and underlines our long-standing bond with Evian since 1994. ”

Since the introduction of European qualifiers for the Evian Championship, six young players from five different countries have earned their presence at the start of the last major of the season. They are the Danes Emily Kristine Pedersen and Nanna Koerstz Madsen, the Russians Klara Spilkova and Maria Verchenova, the French Isabelle Boineau and the Swedish Johanna Gustavsson, all committed to the success of women's golf worldwide.
