The Handa Cup is a series of senior women's golf matches between a United States team and a World Team drawn from players from the rest of the world. It was founded in 2006 and is an event on the LPGA Legends Tour. Since 2013 it has been officially known as the ISPS Handa Cup, named after its sponsor, Haruhisa Handa.[1]
The 2015 event was held on November 13–14 at Palm Aire Country Club, Sarasota, Florida.
The format is drawn from the Ryder Cup and similar team events, consisting of twelve players per side and a non-playing captain, usually a highly respected golf figure. The captains are responsible for pairing the teams in the pairs events, which consist of both alternate shot and best ball formats (also known as "foursome" and "four ball" matches respectively).
