LPGA China event cancelled; no explanation given

The Reignwood Pine Valley LPGA Classic in China has been canceled, just 10 weeks before the event was scheduled to be played.

The LPGA gave no reason for the event’s cancellation in its release announcing the news on Thursday morning.

According to an LPGA official, a “number of factors” led to a “conflict” with the Oct. 1-4 dates that the Reignwood event was scheduled to be played.

LPGA commissioner Mike Whan couldn’t immediately be reached for comment.

According to the LPGA, the cancellation does not impact the long-term future of the event with a two-year extension of the agreement being finalized.
