The SK Telecom Open Golf Tournament is an annual professional golf tournament hosted in South Korea and sponsored by the Korean cell phone company SK Telecom. The tournament was inaugurated in June 1997 as "SK Telecom Classic", and renamed in 2001. It is part of the Asian Tour for men, and in 2007 it has prize money of 600,000,000 Won, or US$600,000. The tenth edition, held May 4–7, 2006, made international headlines when teenage golfer Michelle Wie made the cut, only the second female golfer to do so in a Korean men's tournament after Se-Ri Pak in 2003 and the first to do it on an Asian Tour tournament.
