The tournament was first played as the Ladies British Masters at Mottram Hall in the North West of England in 2000 and 2001.[1]
After a ten-year hiatus, it was re-established in 2012 at Buckinghamshire Golf Club near London, home to the Ladies European Tour headquarters. Held 16–18 August, it fell between the 2012 Summer Olympics and 2012 Summer Paralympics in London, 20 minutes away.[2]
The tournament was renamed the Ladies European Masters in 2013 to signify its importance on the LET schedule, with ISPS Handa remaining the title sponsor.[3]
