The Rome Classic was a women's professional golf tournament on the Ladies European Tour that took place at the Olgiata Golf Club in Rome, Italy.

The tournament was held in April and served as the season opening tournament for three years, between 1989 and 1991.

In 1991, it was one of a record three LET tournaments in Italy that season, as the Woolmark Ladies Match Play Championship was held near Lake Como and the national open near Venice.
