The decisive competition will be held across two prestigious courses: Al Maaden Golf Marrakech and the historic Royal Golf Marrakech, the second-oldest course in the kingdom and co-designed by Arnaud Massy.
Among those vying for a coveted spot on the tour are Gala Dumez, Vanessa Bouvet, Lois Lau, Margot Rouquette, Adela Cernousek, Charlotte Liautier, Chloé Salort, Emma Falcher, Ariane Klotz, Emma Grechi, Anne-Charlotte Mora, and Agathe Laisné.

To secure a full tour card for 2026, the French contingent must first survive a cut after the fourth round and then finish within the top 20 after five days of competition. Players who successfully qualify will be awarded Category 12 status, granting them entry into tournaments throughout the 2026 season. The qualifying tournament represents a crucial opportunity for these players to advance their professional careers and compete at the highest level of women’s golf.
