The LPGA Tour is headed to Asia for an abbreviated two-event schedule in Singapore and Thailand for the first time in 18 months and minus several tournaments because of continuing concerns over COVID-19.

The HSBC Women’s World Championship begins Thursday at Sentosa Golf Club in Singapore, followed by the May 6-9 Honda LPGA Thailand at Chonburi near Bangkok. Golf Channel coverage begins Wednesday night at 10:30 p.m. ET.

A third tournament was scheduled in China – the Blue Bay LPGA on Hainan Island – but the LPGA canceled that event three weeks ago because of pandemic travel restrictions.
