The Lexus Cup, which first started in 2012, is hosted by Lexus’ Asia Pacific Division, in partnership with its regional distributors.

Four pro golfers from the Ladies Professional Golf Association (LPGA): Beatriz Recari and Azahara Munoz from Spain, Jessica Korda from the United States, and So Yeon Ryu from South Korea, were at the event demonstrating their skills, answering golf questions, and offering up tips for anyone looking to improve their game.

The four-day event kicked off with a Practice Day and a Welcome Dinner, followed by the Tournament proper, and culminated in the highly-anticipated Gala Dinner. Winners were announced at the Gala Dinner, after welcome speeches from Matthew Callachor, General Manager, Lexus International, Japan and Paul Carroll, Vice President, Lexus Asia Pacific Division.
