The '''Dubai Moonlight Classic''' is a professional [[golf]] tournament on the [[Ladies European Tour]] (LET). The event was played for the first time in October 2006.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Cutler |first=Bethan |date=26 May 2006 |title=LET announces Dubai Ladies Masters |url=http://www.ladieseuropeantour.com/content/let_content_feature.php?Id=5786&PHPSESSID=325909e49a36011bc15659eb8658fc14 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070930185013/http://www.ladieseuropeantour.com/content/let_content_feature.php?Id=5786&PHPSESSID=325909e49a36011bc15659eb8658fc14 |archive-date=30 September 2007 |publisher=Ladies European Tour}}</ref> Its prize fund of [[Euro|€]]500,000 made it the fourth most valuable tournament on the LET. Between 2009 and 2020, Swiss luxury [[watch]] company [[Omega SA|Omega]] was the tournament's title sponsor. Promoted and organised by Golf In Dubai, the tournament is played on the Faldo course at [[Emirates Golf Club]], which also hosts the [[Dubai Desert Classic]] on the men's [[European Tour]].{{Citation needed|date=September 2023}}

[[Annika Sörenstam]] won the event the first two times it was played. Sörenstam beat out [[Karrie Webb]] in 2006, and in 2007 defeated [[Iben Tinning]] by two shots. The 2008 event, which was Sörenstam's final tournament before her retirement, was won by [[Germany]]'s [[Anja Monke]]. The 2016 event was shortened to 54 holes when during the morning session of the first round. Maximilian Zechmann collapsed on the 13th hole (fourth hole for [[Anne-Lise Caudal]], whom he was caddie at the tournament), dying in the hospital a short time later.<ref>{{Cite news |date=7 December 2016 |title=Caddie dies, 1st round stopped and event shortened in Dubai |work=ESPN |agency=Associated Press |url=http://www.espn.com/golf/story/_/id/18225583/caddie-dies-collapse-ladies-european-tour-event}}</ref>
