SBS Open at Turtle Bay

The Turtle Bay Resort in Oahu, Hawaii has been hosting the SBS Open at Turtle Bay since it was formed in 2005. It is one of those tournaments which have been created in recent years in order to increase the number of tournaments on the LPGA Tour. The tournament was played over three rounds.

The 2006 SBS Open at Turtle Bay had a total prize purse of $ 1 million. The tournament went right down to the wire with the players tied for the top spot. However, Joo Mi Kim won the tournament in the playoff, beating Soo Young Moon and Lorena Ochaoa. Kim was in the lead initially but she played a poor final round enabling the others to catch up with her. In the end she took home $ 150,000 as the winner. The tournament was held in mid February and a total prize money of $ 1 million.
