The event is now in its third year and Awards co-founder Nicole Wheatley said:
“The Women in Golf Awards unearth incredible stories and introduce us to just some of the remarkable women working across the industry.
“If you know a woman who is making a significant impact in the role that they hold, inspires you and others, or deserves acknowledgment for their contribution to golf then please take the time to nominate her. Creating visibility of women excelling in their fields will encourage more to take up a career in golf.
