The ISPS Handa Championship in Japan is a professional
The tournament was created in 2022, originally intended to be a co-sanctioned
However, in February 2022, it was announced that the event would proceed as a sole-sanctioned Japan Golf Tour event due to travel restrictions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic.[3] It is intended that the tournament will return to the European Tour schedule in 2023. Due to the rescheduling, the ISPS Handa Championship in Spain was held the same week as a replacement event on the European Tour's 2022 schedule.
Yuto Katsuragawa won the inaugural event, beating Rikuya Hoshino by one shot.[4]
The 2023 edition returned to the European Tour schedule and was played as a co-sanctioned event alongside the Japan Golf Tour.[5] Lucas Herbert won the tournament, beating Aaron Cockerill in a playoff.[6]
