The Taiwan Swinging Skirts was one of the pillars of the LPGA Tour's fall Asia Series, held sequentially in four countries: China, Korea, Taiwan, and Japan. It was not held for three years from 2020 to last year due to the global spread of COVID-19. This year, it seemed to resume after four years but was canceled again. The LPGA Tour will soon announce plans to hold another tournament to replace the Korea Swinging Skirts.
