Ladies' British Open Amateur Stroke Play Championship was founded in 1969 by the Ladies' Golf Union (now merged into The R&A) of Great Britain.
A stroke play tournament over 72 holes, it was discontinued by the R&A after the 2017 tournament won by Linn Grant[1] in favour of a new Girls U16 Amateur Championship.[2]
Notably, in 2000 Rebecca Hudson won the Ladies' British Open Amateur Championship match play title as well as the Ladies' British Open Amateur Stroke Play Championship.[3] Leona Maguire, at age 16, was the youngest player to win the event.
