FINAL ROUND OF THE SCOTTISH LADIES OPEN GOLF AT GULLANE


Sunday 29 July 2018

Catriona Matthew eyeing return to ‘special’ Lytham

By Martin Dempster (The ScotsmanNewspaper)

The 2009 Scottish Girls Team with Catriona Matthew at Lytham
By Martin Dempster

Winning a first major is enough to get you giddy. To achieve that feat 11 weeks after giving birth is positively head-spinning stuff. “It was a bit of blur that whole week,” admitted Catriona Matthew as she reflected on achieving that very feat nine years ago in the Women’s British Open at Royal Lytham, where the event returns next week.

“At the time, I just got on with it. It was 11 weeks after (second child) Sophie was born. But you just did what was required, feeding and all that. It all passed in a blur. You look back and think ‘that was quite amazing’.”

The week before Matthew and her husband, Graeme, had escaped a hotel fire during the Evian Masters in France. “That was my first week back after giving birth,” she added. “I just went to the Open with no expectations and no pressure on myself. It’s hard to do that every week, though. That was almost a one-off.”

The 48-year-old has recorded three top-10 finishes in the event since then but has been waiting patiently for this one to come around. “I’ve never been back to Lytham. Amazing to think the British has never been back either,” she said. 
“Graeme is going to caddie again and come out of retirement. It will be great. Any time you get to go back to a course where you’ve had success is special. The fact is was my first major makes it even more special.”

Thailand's Ariya wins Ladies Scottish Open and Kelsey and Kylie

Ariya Jutanugarn 

Thailand will have a new world number one when the Rolex Women’s World Golf Rankings are released on Monday, after Ariya Jutanugarn (pictured above) conquered rainy conditions to win the Aberdeen Standard Investments Ladies Scottish Open, at Gullane Golf Club, in East Lothian. 

Jutanugarn first held the world number one position, for two weeks, in June 2017 and she will resume that position after earning her 11th professional victory on Sunday evening, which was her first on a links golf course. Reflecting on her performance, she said: “I had so much fun. 

I didn't expect to win the tournament, because it's a links course.” The 22-year-old from Bangkok fired a final round of 66 to finish on 13-under-par, a stroke ahead of Minjee Lee.

To read the full report go to the Ladies European Tour Website

Scots Kelsey MacDonald (pictured with her caddy Katy McNicoll) and Kylie Henry finished in 59th and 67th place respectively on 3 and 5 over par
