Begun in 1970, the Trophée Lancôme became an official tournament on the European Golf Tour in 1982. With the tournament occurring only days after September 11, 2001, Tiger Woods cited safety concerns and didn't travel to Europe, withdrawing from the event. Sergio Garcia won the tournament in Woods' absence. Rheims is an internationally renowned photographer famed for her alluring glamorous images and portraits.
