The LPGA announced Tuesday that it is returning to Malaysia in 2023 for the inaugural Maybank Championship, which will replace the Taiwan Swinging Skirts LPGA.
Maybank is one of Asia's leading banking groups and will be the title sponsor for the event; the first edition of the Maybank Championship will take place October 26-29, 2023, which was when the Taiwan event was initially scheduled, at Kuala Lumpur Golf and Country Club (KLGCC) in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.
The previous Taiwan event was cancelled due to "operational factors" after having not been held since 2019 due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
