The Lalla Meryem Cup

The Lalla Meryem Cup stands out as one of the flagship tournaments on the professional women’s golf circuit. Held on the Blue Course of the Royal Golf Dar Es Salam in Rabat, this competition provides a premier platform for internationally renowned female golfers.

Founded in 1993 by His Late Majesty King Hassan II and integrated into the Ladies European Tour in 2010, the Lalla Meryem Cup has established itself in the history of women’s golf, attracting champions like Marie-Laure de Lorenzi, Dame Laura Davies—who has an impressive 87 worldwide victories—Gwladys Nocera, and Ariya Jutanugarn, a two-time major tournament winner. The event has also welcomed other major figures, including Norwegian Suzann Pettersen and Swedish Annika Sörenstam, who is notably the only player to have scored 59 in a tournament, thereby enhancing the prestige of this event.

The distinctive charm of the Lalla Meryem Cup also lies in its trophy: an elegant minaudière carefully placed in an exquisite case, adding a touch of refinement to the competition. This unique trophy in the world of women’s golf underscores the exclusivity of this event.
