Women's British Amateur Championship
Het Women's British Amateur Championship (Brits Amateurkampioenschap dames) is voor amateurs het belangrijkste golftoernooi van Europa. Het is vergelijkbaar met het Brits amateurkampioenschap voor heren. Buiten Europa is het US Women's Amateur Golf Championship het belangrijkste toernooi.
De eerste editie was in 1893, het jaar waarin The Ladies' Golf Union werd opgericht. De formule is matchplay. Pas in 1924 werd het toernooi door een niet-Brit gewonnen. De prijs wordt de Pam Barton Silver Salver genoemd. De finaliste krijgt The Diana Fishwick Cup.
May Hezlett was 112 jaren lang de jongste winnares van het toernooi ooit. Zij won het op de leeftijd van 17 jaar en 13 dagen. Het nieuwe record staat op naam van Lauren Taylor, die Brits Amateur in 2011 werd op 16-jarige leeftijd.
In februari 2011 werd de World Amateur Golf Ranking voor vrouwen gelanceerd in navolging van de WAGR voor heren, die toen vijf jaar bestond.
