The Symetra Tour Championship is an annual golf tournament for professional women golfers on the Symetra Tour, the LPGA's developmental tour. The event has been played since 2008 at LPGA International in Daytona Beach, Florida. In 2008 and 2009 the tournament was played on the Legends Course. Beginning in 2010, it has been played on the Champions Course.

The tournament is a 54-hole event, as are most Symetra Tour tournaments, and includes pre-tournament pro-am opportunities, in which local amateur golfers can play with the professional golfers from the Tour as a benefit for local charities. The current benefiting charity of the Daytona Beach Invitational is the Father Lopez Catholic High School
