The ANNIKA Invitational at Mission Hills is played in the fall on the Annika Course at Mission Hills Dongguan in China. The tournament is the first ever girls-only junior tournament to be held in China. The inaugural event was held August 24-26, 2011. The ANNIKA Invitational at Mission Hills is a 54-hole stroke-play tournament open to junior female golfers age 12 to 18 of all nationalities in Asia with a handicap of 24 and below. The top-3 finishers of the Championship Division earn entry into the ANNIKA Invitational in the United States, the award-winning American Junior Golf Association event played annually in Orlando, Florida.
The ANNIKA Foundation created the inaugural ANNIKA Invitational in 2009 at the Reunion Resort in Orlando, Fla., home of the ANNIKA Academy. The tournament attracts the top junior female golfers from around the world and is known for Annika’s hands-on involvement in all tournament activities, including clinics and educational sessions for the participants.
The ANNIKA Invitational at Mission Hills is modeled similarly and sees Annika and ANNIKA Foundation staff equally involved with the junior golfers.
