The U.S. Ladies Professional Golf Association (LPGA) Tour announced on the 9th (local time) that the title sponsor of the golf tournament named after Pak Se-ri is the investment company Fir Hills. The official tournament name is the "FIR HILLS SERI PAK Championship." The event will be held over four days from March 21 to 24 at the Palos Verdes Golf Club near Los Angeles, California. A total of 144 players will compete for a total prize money of $2 million (approximately 2.64 billion KRW).

Last year, the tournament was held under the name Dio Implant LA Open (total prize money $1.75 million), but this year Pak Se-ri is hosting the event. She said, "I am honored to return to the LPGA Tour as the tournament host," adding, "The key is to give advice to the next generation of golfers and to give back to the golf I love."

Pak Se-ri debuted as a professional in 1996, dominating the Korean circuit before entering the U.S. stage in 1998. Especially during her rookie season, she won the U.S. Women's Open with a "barefoot fighting spirit," becoming a national hero. She received the Rookie of the Year award and the Vare Trophy in 2003. She achieved a total of 25 wins on the LPGA Tour, including five major championships. She retired in 2016.
