Message from the Executive Director Welcome to the 2009 edition of the Ladies European Tour guide, which follows an action packed 2008 season. As the Tour celebrated its 30th anniversary, our membership enjoyed an unprecedented number of events, all excellently promoted and staged, around the world. We played at new or re-introduced tournaments in Australia, Spain, Turkey, Germany, Ireland, Sweden, China and Korea. Gwladys Nocera achieved great success as winner of five LET tournaments and won the 2008 New Star Money List, as well as the Players’ Player of the Year Award. Melissa Reid added her name to an impressive list of winners of the Ryder Cup Wales Rookie of the Year Award, in association with the Bill Johnson Trophy and five members claimed their maiden tour victories: Emma Zackrisson, Lotta Wahlin, Anne-Lise Caudal, Martina Eberl and Anja Monke. At the season-ending Dubai Ladies Masters, Annika Sorenstam stepped away from competitive play and it would be remiss not to acknowledge her fantastic achievements, including 89 individual titles. As a business, the LET is delighted to present another strong schedule which consolidates its recent growth despite the economic down turn. The 2009 schedule features 26 events in 22 different countries with total prize money in excess of €12.1 million, which is the most in history. We have stabilised our position and are seeing continued support from all of our loyal sponsors. New Star Asset Management has renewed its sponsorship of the LET’s official ‘New Star Money List’ and New Star Rookies until 2011, while John Deere will continue as the tour’s Official Supplier of Golf Course Machinery until the end of 2010. Abacus and ecco have extended their agreements as the Official Clothing and Shoe suppliers to the Ladies European Tour respectively. Meanwhile the R&A continues to contribute to the tour’s development. The Solheim Cup will be at the forefront of everyone’s thoughts this year and let’s hope that Alison Nicholas and her team can bring back The Cup from the USA in August. Finally, we would like to thank everyone who is involved with the Ladies European Tour, including all of the sponsors, media and spectators. We look forward to seeing you on the fairways throughout the year and hope that you enjoy the best of sporting action.

Media and Television Guidelines I

GENERAL REGULATIONS

The following regulations are to be followed by ALL of the media: 1. A daily ‘Inside the ropes’ armband or access pass is necessary to walk inside the gallery ropes. It is imperative that you remain one arms length away from the ropes where practicable and appear to be a part of the gallery at all times. Please note that the gallery should still be able to see the play and crouch when possible so the spectators behind you do not miss the action. 2. Players are not to be distracted at any time during play. Do NOT interview players or ask them to pose for photographs during their rounds. 3. Also, do not ask players for interviews during practice sessions, on the driving range or putting greens, practice bunkers, except with the prior arrangement of the player and the Press Officer. 4. If an interview is to be conducted in the practice area, please take into consideration the needs of other players. It is best done away from the cordoned off section for practice.

I

WORKING PRESS REGULATIONS

To avoid any embarrassment to you or distraction to the players, officials and caddies: 1. Do not walk or stand in playing areas. 2. Follow directions of the marshals or officials. 3. Do not interview during play. The winning pairing, team, captain or player will be brought to the Media Centre for an official interview. Media who request interviews individually with players will be assisted as much as possible, but ultimately, it will be down to the individual journalist to arrange an interview with the player’s agreement.

I

TAPE RECORDER REGULATIONS

1. All tape recorder/Dictaphone work should be, where possible, conducted within the confines of the Media Centre or adjacent area. 2. Tape Recorders, mobile telephones, Dictaphones, cameras and other electrical devices are not permitted in the locker rooms. 3. Mobile Telephones are NOT permitted anywhere on the course.

I

WEATHER DELAY SITUATIONS

1. During weather delay situations, no one other than the players and essential staff will be permitted inside the locker rooms. This means that media are not allowed inside the locker rooms in such situations. However, where possible, the Press Officer will arrange for players to be made available for a short comment during such situations.

PHOTOGRAPHY REGULATIONS

Photographic credentials will only be issued to personnel on assignment from recognised and accredited publications or news agencies. Requests for credentials must be made by the appropriate publications or news agencies and NOT by the photographer. The Ladies European Tour reserves the right to refuse photo credentials in its sole discretion. Photographic likenesses of Ladies European Tour members, staff, officials and courses and USA Solheim Cup team members may only be used by the publications or news agencies which the photographer represents. Any other use must be approved in advance in writing by the Ladies European Tour. Commercial exploitation of player or course photographs without the written consent of the players, members, staff, course owners or the Ladies European Tour is strictly prohibited. A limited number of photographic ‘Inside the ropes’ accreditation will be issued by the media manager at each event to avoid overcrowding. Photographers who do not have the necessary bibs, armbands or any other kind of accreditation for inside the ropes use, must stay outside the ropes at all times. Accredited written press may not take any form of camera equipment ‘inside the ropes’. Photographic assistants may not go inside the ropes. Cameras may only be used by accredited media who have been assigned photo credentials and as such are subject to the following conditions: 1. Photographers with ‘Inside the ropes’ accreditation must stay within one arms length of the ropes at all times. 2. The use of golf carts, ladders or any other equipment to gain extra advantage is prohibited at all times. 3. Photographers must NOT position themselves in the line of play at any time. If requested to move by a player or her caddie, and official or a marshal, the photographer must do so without delay or discussion. 4. No photograph will be taken until a player has completed her stroke. 5. Players should not be asked to pose during play at any time. 6. Noise free camera equipment must be used at all times. Those photographers with loud shutters on their equipment may be asked to use at least a 300mm lens to avoid sound interference with players.


7. No flash photography is allowed at any time during play. 8. Cameras are NOT allowed in the locker rooms or Tournament Office at any event.

I

INTERNET SERVICE REGULATIONS

Media credentials will be issued only to personnel on assignment from recognised golf, or legitimate news internet sites, as determined by the Ladies European Tour in its sole discretion. Individuals representing multiple interests must agree to be bound by all media regulations. 1. Coverage of any event via the Internet must be part of the news portion of the site and not purport to be live, ball-by-ball or real time coverage. These rights are owned wholly by the Ladies European Tour. If any Internet site wishes to cover the event ‘live’, written permission from the Ladies European Tour must be sought in advance. 2. Scoring information appearing on the site may be provided no sooner than thirty minutes (30) after the actual occurrence of the shots, or after the time such information is legally available as public domain information if sooner than thirty minutes after the actual occurrence of the shots. 3. Photographic images of the Ladies European Tour, or The Solheim Cup players may be used for legitimate news coverage only, and may be used together with news stories during the day’s play, so long as such photographs are not used with other ‘real time’ or ‘live scoring’ or other ‘live’ information to create a shot-by-shot analysis of the day’s play. Commercial exploitation of these images without written consent of the Ladies European Tour is strictly prohibited.

I

RADIO COVERAGE

The Ladies European Tour retains exclusive rights to all events on the Ladies European Tour schedule. No live, or tape delayed broadcast of any portion of any Ladies European Tour event is permitted without the written consent of the Ladies European Tour. Stations that have not purchased the rights to originate shot-by-shot coverage are permitted to broadcast highlights and coverage of such events under the following conditions: 1. Coverage shall not be in excess of three minutes of highlights and may not purport to be live, shot-by-shot coverage from the course. 2. All highlights or news coverage must be part of a regularly scheduled news and/or sports programmes and may not be broadcasted after seven days from the conclusion of play on that day. 3. The use of golf carts is prohibited at all times 4. Only personnel with approved accreditation will

be permitted into the media centre and locker room areas. 5. Radio broadcasters are NOT permitted inside the ropes at any time. 6. Broadcasters are not permitted to talk to, or interview players during play or after the round until the player has signed her scorecard. The Press Officer at the event will decide whether the player must go to written press or television first, before Radio stations. 7. No radio transmitting equipment or microphones are permitted in the locker room at any time.

I

TELEVISION GUIDELINES

1. All broadcasters and News/ENG crews will require accreditation to operate within the Ladies European Tour venue or Solheim Cup site. 2. Where one country is a rights holder, any other network from that country must clear access directly with that rights holder for the terms on which the access material may be transmitted in that country. Proof of clearance must be obtained before accreditation can be processed. 3. Only accredited crews are allowed inside the ropes. Ark Productions, LET Production Co are also allowed inside the ropes if required, but must be aware of host broadcaster camera placements. No other crews are allowed inside any roped off areas. 4. All accredited ENG crews on site must display the appropriate accreditation. (This does not allow access into the Media Centre, without the appropriate media accreditation credentials). 5. All accredited ENG crews may have access to the course outside of any roped off areas. Roped off areas will be provided for ENG crews at practice locations. 6. Camera operators must NOT position themselves in the line of play at any time. If requested to move by a player or her caddie, official or a marshal, the camera operator must do so without delay or discussion. 7.

cI knew after the Saturday that I could beat Laura Davies’ record but I just told my caddie Raf to try not to think about that. We set off on the Sunday just trying to play and see how the day went and, if I was playing well, we would think again. I told him after the 12th that I had enough shots in hand to just think about the record and it came off.d

Gwladys Nocera eclipsed Laura Davies’s four round winning record by four shots at the Goteborg Masters in Sweden with a total of 29-under-par.

Open De Espana Femenino Panoramica Golf and Country Club, Castellon, Spain. 17 - 20 April 2008 Sweden’s Emma Zackrisson secured her first win on the Ladies European Tour on Sunday at the Open de Espana Femenino in Castellon. Zackrisson, who led after the second and third rounds, posted a final round of 71 to finish on a fourround total of seven-under-par 281. After three days of strong winds at Panoramica Golf and Country Club, the 29-year-old Swede began the day with a four stroke cushion and finished four ahead of three players. The defending champion Nikki Garrett (69) and Joanne Mills (71) from Australia tied for second with Italian Diana Luna (69), on three-under-par 285. After a heavy downpour in the morning, play was suspended for an hour and 19 minutes due to inclement weather at 1.56pm affording the Swede a half-time lunch break. After a heartstopping moment at the 17th, when her approach shot to the green almost found the water hazard, Zackrisson signed off with a final-hole birdie to take the €41,250 first prize.

France’s Gwladys Nocera claimed a two shot victory at the €200,000 Aberdeen Asset Management Ladies Scottish Open. The 32-year-old from Biarritz shot rounds of 69, 70 and 69 at The Carrick on Loch Lomond for a five-under-par total of 208. It was her sixth Ladies European Tour victory inside two years after three wins in 2006 and a further two titles in 2007. Sweden’s Maria Boden recorded a career best finish of second on three-under after a final round of 69. England’s Rebecca Hudson had a 68 and tied for third on two-under with Austria’s Nicole Gergely, who shot 69.

Sweden’s Lotta Wahlin cruised to her maiden Ladies European Tour (LET) victory at the inaugural Garanti American Express Turkish Ladies’ Open. The 24-year-old from Linkoping carded rounds of 71, 71, 73 and 70 at the punishing National Golf Club in Antalya, Turkey, to win by 12 shots on a total of seven-under-par. Her winning margin was the second largest in the LET’s 30-year history since England’s Laura Davies won the 1995 Guardian Irish Holidays Open at St Margaret’s by 16 shots. Another Swede, Johanna Westerberg (71), shared second with South African Stacy Lee Bregman (72) and Spaniard Paula Marti (74), who was eight shots back in outright second entering the final round. Wahlin, who was the only player to finish below par for the tournament, led from start to finish and never faltered on a course featuring narrow fairways, numerous red pine trees and rock hard greens. She extended her lead each day and became the second Swedish first time winner in only three events on the fledgling 2008.

Tournament organisers took the decision to reduce the event from 72 to 54 holes at 11am on Sunday as many of the Leaders Rd 1 Rebecca Coakley (IRE) 63 (-9) fairways and greens were flooded after heavy rainfall, making Rd 2 Suzann Pettersen (NOR) 130 (-14) the course unplayable. With the fourth round cancelled, the Rd 3 Suzann Pettersen (NOR) 194 (-22) results at the end of round three were final. Par 72 (35, 37) 6185 yards. €525,000

Weather Rd 1 Intermittent heavy showers Rd 2 Warm and breezy in the afternoon Rd 3 Dull with showers

Pettersen’s winning total of 194, 22-under-par, broke the Ladies European Tour’s record for the lowest winning 54-hole aggregate and the Norwegian revealed that she had been aiming to get to 30-under-par. Pettersen took her third Ladies European Tour title, and her eighth overall, by a six stroke margin with South Korean teenager Amy Yang taking second on 16-under-par. Gwladys Nocera, who broke her own course record with a ten-under 62, finished in outright third.

South Korea’s Amy Yang claimed the HypoVereinsbank Ladies German Open, presented by Audi, by four shots at Golfpark Gut Häusern. Yang, 18, began the final round with a five shot lead Leaders and shot a five-under 67 for a 21-under-par total. Sweden’s Rd 1 Nina Reis (SWE) 64 (-8) Louise Stahle, the 2007 Ryder Cup Wales Rookie of the Year, Rd 2 Lora Fairclough (ENG) 134 (-10) finished in second on 17-under with Gwladys Nocera in third.

Ladies Open of Portugal Quinta Da Cima, Algarve, Portugal. 13 - 15 June 2008 Anne-Lise Caudal from France shot a final round 70 to claim her first Ladies European Tour title at the Portugal Ladies Open on the Algarve. The 24-year old second year tour player mixed five birdies and two bogeys for a 16-under-par 203 total and a Leaders one stroke victory over compatriot Gwladys Nocera (66) and Rd 1 Anne-Lise Caudal (FRA) 64 (-9) Rd 2 Anne-Lise Caudal (FRA) 133 (-13) England’s Georgina Simpson (68) at Quinta de Cima Golf Club. Rd 3 Anne-Lise Caudal (FRA) 203 (-16) Caudal led after all three rounds of the tournament.

Par 73 (36, 37) 6301 yards €200,000

She set a course record nine-under-par 64 in the first round and added a four-under-par 69 on the second day. She began the final round with a one stroke lead over Sweden’s Louise Stahle but was delighted that her room-mate for the week, current European number one Gwladys Nocera, came second because it meant that the duo’s plan for the day came off perfectly. Caudal said: “When we arrived at the golf course today, she said to me, “Okay, one and two; first and second.” I said, “Okay, why not.”

England’s Rebecca Hudson captured her second title in the space of three weeks with a final round 64 at the weather interrupted Ladies English Open. Hudson came from four shots behind the overnight leader Melissa Reid, also from England, to capture the title by a stroke on a wet and windy day at The Oxfordshire Golf Club in Thame. The 29-year-old from Doncaster fired eight birdies, with four on the front nine and four on the back, for a ten-under-par 206 total and a first prize of €24,750. With no tournament scheduled on the Ladies European Tour the previous week, Hudson’s win followed her recent triumph at the Tenerife Ladies Open, played in contrasting sunny and dry conditions. It was her third win on the LET after a maiden tour title in Hungary in 2006. As in Tenerife, Hudson employed her good friend and fellow Tour professional Kirsty Fisher as her caddie for the final round.

World number three Suzann Pettersen secured a five shot victory at the AIB Irish Open, supported by Fáilte Ireland. The Norwegian shot a final round five-under-par 67 to finish on an 11-under-par 205 total after three rounds at Portmarnock Links in Dublin. Marianne Skarpnord, also from Norway, was second on six-under-par, which was her career best finish in four seasons on the Ladies European Tour. Pettersen began the final round one stroke ahead of New Zealand’s Lynn Brooky but a birdie to the Kiwi’s bogey at the second hole extended her lead to three. The 27-year-old from Oslo knocked in three birdies on her front nine, with another three on the back nine. She carded just one bogey, at the 341 yard par four 14th hole where she hit her second shot into the front greenside bunker. Of her six birdies, four were on the par fives. “It was windy and challenging so I’m very happy with my performance,” said Pettersen, who collected a first prize of €67,500 for her ninth career title.

Eberl began the day with a two stroke lead and stalled with an early bogey at the second hole, but bounced back with two tap in birdies at the seventh and eighth holes to claim a three stroke cushion at the turn. She knocked in a four-foot birdie putt at the par-four 10th hole, before carding another bogey at the 13th hole, where she pulled her tee shot left into deep bushes and took a penalty drop. After sealing the win and first prize of €67,500 with a tap-in birdie at the par-four 18th hole, she said: “I’m so happy right now. It was very hard out there and the wind was very difficult all week.”

RICOH Women’s British Open Sunningdale (Old Course), Berkshire, England. 31 July - 3 August 2008 Par 72 (36, 36) 6392 yards £1,050,000 Leaders Rd 1 Juli Inkster (USA) 65 (-7) Rd 2 Yuri Fudoh (JPN) 134 (-10) Ji-Yai Shin (KOR) Rd 3 Yuri Fudoh (JPN) 203 (-13) Rd 4 Ji-Yai Shin (KOR) 270 (-18)

South Korea’s Ji-Yai Shin came from a shot behind to win the Ricoh Women’s British Open by three strokes at Sunningdale Golf Club. A final round of 66 gave the 20-year-old a 270, 18-under-par total with Taiwan’s Yani Tseng in second. South Korea’s Eun Hee Ji and Yuri Fudo of Japan were a shot further back in a tie for third. Defending champion Lorena Ochoa of Mexico was expected to pile on pressure but she settled for a final round of 69 and a share of seventh with Japan’s Momoko Ueda on 11-under-par. The victory was the first major championship of 20-year-old Shin’s career and she was the youngest ever winner of the championship. “My whole life, I've been waiting for this time and my dream comes true now,” said the bespectacled Shin, who claimed a first prize of £160,000 and became the third South Korean winner of the championship, following Se Ri Pak in 2001 and Jeong Jang in 2005. She was planning to play in Japan for the next two years but her victory gave her the opportunity to play in the United States.

Yang came from four shots behind the second round leader Lill Saether of Norway to claim her third Ladies European Tour victory in total. She finished on a three-round total of 14-under-par 202.

S4C Wales Ladies Championship of Europe Machynys Peninsula Golf Club, Llanelli, Wales. 14 -16 August 2008 Sweden’s Lotta Wahlin won the S4C Wales Ladies Championship of Europe, defeating Germany’s Martina Eberl at the second extra hole of a sudden death playoff. The 24-year-old birdied the par-five 18th hole twice in the playoff at Machynys Peninsula Golf and Country Club in Llanelli, South Wales. Eberl, who led after the first and second rounds, birdied the first extra hole but bogeyed the second after her ball twice found the sand near the green. Wahlin, who had won her first official Ladies European Tour title at the Turkish Ladies Open three months earlier, had a chance to win the tournament at the 18th green in regulation, but missed a threefooter for par and dropped a shot falling back into a tie with Eberl.

Germany’s Martina Eberl overcame a six shot deficit to claim a one stroke victory at the Nykredit Masters in Denmark. The 27-year-old from Munich finished with a final round of sevenunder-par 66 with a 54-hole, 14-under-par total, at Simon’s Golf Club.

Annika Sorenstam, playing in her last tournament in Europe before stepping away from tournament golf, took third place on nine-under after a closing 71. Reid missed a five foot birdie chance before Eberl sank her bogey putt from five feet for the win. It was Eberl's third victory on the Ladies European Tour inside 12 months and her second of the 2008 season after the BMW Ladies Italian Open in July.

UNIQA Ladies Golf Open presented by Raiffeisen Golfclub Fohrenwald, Wiener Neustadt, Austria. 11 -14 September 2008 England’s Laura Davies successfully defended her Austrian title at Golf Club Fohrenwald in Wiener Neustadt. Davies, who began the final round tied for the lead with Swede Emma Zackrisson, shot a four-under-par 68 in cold conditions to finish on 15-under-par 273, three strokes ahead of compatriot Lisa Hall.

“Four times I’ve been here and four times I’ve been in the presentation. Twice a winner now; it’s good,” said an elated Davies. “The first year I came here I knew I liked the course and I knew I could win and sure enough the last two years obviously I have.” Davies posted rounds of 71, 67, 67 and 68 to notch her first win since the New South Wales Open in Sydney, Australia, in January. “I love winning and that is what I do this for. It is just fantastic to have won,” she said.

Gwladys Nocera from France won her ninth Ladies European Tour title since May 2006 with a record breaking performance at the Göteborg Masters in Sweden. The 33-year-old sealed her fourth title of the year with the best 72-hole score in the LET’s 30-year history. She finished with a six-under 66 to close the tournament at 29-under-par 259. “It feels good!” said Nocera who broke Laura Davies’ previous record in relation to par of 25-under 267, set at the 1995 Guardian Irish Holidays Open at St Margaret’s. The raw score of 267 had also been recorded by Davies at the 1988 Biarritz Ladies Open and Juli Inkster at the 2003 Evian Masters. Nocera began the final round with an eight stroke lead over Spain’s Paula Marti but stretched that into an 11 shot victory over Nina Reis of Sweden. Reis, a 28-year-old from the nearby town of Kungalv, fired an 11-under-par 61 and tied the record for the LET’s all time lowest round set by England’s Kirsty Taylor at the 2005 Wales Ladies Open at Machynys Peninsula. Reis was 12-under-par for the day after 17 holes and a score of 59 looked possible, but she bogeyed the last to drop back to 18-under-par 270 for second place, her career best finish on the LET.

Suzhou Taihu Ladies Open 2008 Suzhou Taihu International Golf Club, Suzhou, China. 31 October - 2 November 2008 Par 72 (36, 36) 6299 yards €200,000 Leaders Rd 1 Li Ying Ye (CHN) 65 (-7) Rd 2 Li Ying Ye (CHN) 133 (-11) Rd 3 Annika Sorenstam (SWE) 203 (-13) Li Ying Ye (CHN) Sorenstam defeated Ying Ye at the second extra hole

World No. 3 Annika Sorenstam secured her 89th career title when she clinched the inaugural EUR200,000 Suzhou Taihu Ladies Open in China. The 38-year-old Swede defeated China's Li Ying Ye at the second extra hole of a sudden death playoff. Five strokes behind Ye overnight, Sorenstam shot a final round of seven-under 65 for a three-round total of 13-under 203 to tie with Ye at the end of regulation play. Both players birdied the first playoff hole but Sorenstam clinched victory when Ye missed a short putt at the second extra hole. Sorenstam, who fired eight birdies and one bogey in the final round, drew one stroke clear of Ye after a birdie at the 16th but temporarily lost her lead when Ye birdied the 17th. At the 18th they both birdied the par five hole. "I tried my best to apply the pressure on her but she never succumbed to it and I thought anything could happen in the playoff. This is my 89th career win and I'm so happy,” said Sorenstam.

Saint Four Ladies Masters in Jeju Saint Four Golf and Resort, Jeju Island, South Korea. 14 - 16 November 2008 Par 72 (36, 36) 6303 yards US$300,000

Hee Kyung Seo birdied her last four holes to claim the inaugural Saint Four Ladies Masters on Jeju Island in South Korea. The 22-year-old defeated compatriot Sun-Ju Ahn by two strokes Leaders on home soil. The three-round tournament was co-sanctioned by Rd 1 Sun Ju Ahn (KOR) 65 (-7) the Ladies European Tour (LET) and the Korean Ladies Rd 2 Sun Ju Ahn (KOR) 135 (-9) Professional Golf Association (KLPGA). Starting the final round on Rd 3 Hee-Kyung Seo (KOR) 202 (-14) eight-under-par, one stroke behind Ahn, Seo closed with a sixunder 66 for a three round total of 14-under-par 202. Ahn carded 69 for outright second, with So Yeon Ryu a shot further back in third after a 65. Seo, ranked second behind this year’s Ricoh Women’s British Open champion Ji-Yai Shin on the KLPGA Money List, began slowly with a bogey at the fourth hole, but her fortunes turned when she birdied the seventh for the third day running. She trailed Ahn by four strokes at the turn but fired six birdies over the back nine for an inward total of 30 strokes. After tapping in for birdie at the tricky par-five 15th, Seo eventually caught Ahn when she sank a curling 20 foot birdie putt at the par-three 16th. She pulled a shot clear at the par-four 17th and sealed the win with an eight foot birdie putt at the last hole.

Dubai Ladies Masters Emirates Golf Club (Majlis Course), Dubai. 11 - 14 December 2008 Par 72 (35, 37) 6412 yards €500,000

Germany’s Anja Monke triumphed at Annika Sorenstam’s farewell tournament, shooting a final round of four-under-par 68 for a three shot victory at the Dubai Ladies Masters. The Leaders 31-year-old, from Hannover, finished with a 72-hole total of 275, Rd 1 Johanna Head (ENG) 66 (-6) 13-under-par, on the Majlis Course at Emirates Golf Club. Rd 2 Annika Sorenstam (SWE) 136 (-8) Sorenstam, 38, signed off in joint seventh place after a final Rd 3 Anja Monke (GER) 207 (-9) round of 71. In typical style, she rolled an eight foot birdie putt Rd 4 Anja Monke (GER) 275 (-13) into the cup on the 18th hole before a packed gallery of her golfing colleagues. There were whistles and cheers from the gallery as she finished, before raising her putter in the air and hugging her caddie of nine years, Terry McNamara. There were only a few small tears and Sorenstam kept her composure. “It means a lot. When you get that kind of respect from the players it breaks your heart,” Sorenstam said. She stepped away with 89 career titles, including 10 majors, which is more than any other female professional golfer. The Swede, who won the first two Dubai Ladies Masters titles in 2006 and 2007, said she planned to marry Mike McGee in January and focus on her business interests and starting a family.

Qualifying School La Manga (South Course), Spain. 12 - 15 January 2009 Par 73 (36, 37) 6245 yards

Exactly 30 players qualified for category 8a membership of the Ladies European Tour at La Manga Club in Spain and earned the right to play on the LET in 2009.

Leaders Rd 1 Jessica Ji 69 (-4) Rd 2 Beth Allen 141 (-5) Rd 3 Anna Nordqvist 211 (-8) Rd 4 Anna Nordqvist 279 (-13)

Sweden’s Anna Nordqvist, the 2008 British Amateur Champion, won the event with a four-round total of 279, 13-under-par after rounds of 75, 69, 67 and 68. Australia’s Frances Bondad finished three shots back in second place after a final round of six-under 67, which was the lowest score of the day. She was thrilled to rediscover her confidence after a frustrating rookie season in 2008, when she finished in 88th position on the New Star Money List. Scotland’s Lynn Kenny, who finished third on seven-under-par, credited her new coach, Kevin Craggs, as an inspiration.

The History of the Solheim Cup The Solheim Cup was founded in 1990, when the sponsor Karsten Manufacturing Corporation (manufacturers of PING golf equipment) decided that women professional golfers should have an equivalent event to The Ryder Cup. The event was named after the company’s founder Karsten Solheim and took the form of a biennial transatlantic team matchplay competition between European members of the Ladies European Tour (LET) and the Ladies Professional Golf Association (LPGA). The format of the event has evolved over the years. The first event was played at Lake Nona in Florida with 16 points at stake. Four pairings from each team played in the initial foursomes matches, which was followed by four more points being played for in the fourball matches. On the final day’s play the remaining eight points were decided by eight singles matches. Unfortunately for the Europeans the home side took charge from the start, eventually winning the trophy 111⁄2 - 41⁄2. Two years later, two more points were introduced to the final day’s singles and the European’s took their revenge on their American counterparts, winning the tie 111⁄2 - 61⁄2 at Dalmahoy GC in Scotland. Back in the USA in 1994, the event developed further, with one more fourball and one extra foursomes match pushing the total points available up to 20. For the third time the home side was victorious, with the Americans winning 13 - 7. In line with the growth in popularity of both of the Tours, eight more matches were introduced into the event in 1996. Instead of playing one match a day, competitors would play a foursomes match each of the first two mornings and a fourball in the afternoons. With two extra matches introduced into the singles, this brought the tally up to 28 for the event and mirrored the men’s Ryder Cup format. After two close days at the Marriot St Pierre Hotel and Country Club in Wales, the Americans clinched the Solheim Cup’s first away victory, winning the singles 10 - 2 and the tie 17 - 11. The format stayed the same back in the States for the fifth Solheim Cup tie and the Americans successfully retained the Cup for the third time running, winning the event 16 - 12. But the event received another modification when it moved to a new 26-point format at Loch Lomond in 2000. The matches featured four Foursome Matches in the morning of day one, followed by four in the afternoon. Day two would bring six Fourball Matches only and in a thrilling final day of 12 singles matches, Europe defied the critics when they snatched victory from the Americans. In 2002 at Interlachen GC, the format reverted to the 28-point format to mirror the Ryder Cup matches as it was in 1996. This format continued in future Solheim Cup matches. At Interlachen in 2002, the event was full of sudden swings and lead changes, as well as one of the most closely contested Solheim Cups to date. Europe won three of four morning foursomes matches on Friday, but the US Team rallied to win three of four four-ball matches in the afternoon to tie the competition at 4-4 after the first day. The home team’s momentum carried over into the morning foursome matches on Saturday, where they won three of four matches to take a 7-5 lead. But the tide turned again in the afternoon as the Europeans swept the four-ball matches to take a commanding 9-7 lead into the final day. The U.S. Team, led by Patty Sheehan, showed their strength in the singles matches on Sunday, winning seven of 12 matches and halving three. Wendy Ward, who took world-number-one Annika Sorenstam 18 holes, earned a key half-point. In the final match of the day, Rosie Jones clinched the Cup for the U.S. Team with a par putt on the 15th hole. Laura Davies earned two points for the European Team and stood as the all-time points’ earner 206

in Solheim Cup competition (16) over Dottie Pepper (14), who qualified for the U.S. Team but was unable to compete due to injury. Carin Koch continued her stellar Solheim Cup play, posting a 4-0-1 record to compliment her 3-0-0 record from the 2000 event. Koch’s only blemish on a perfect record came in the singles matches when she halved with veteran Beth Daniel after the outcome of the event was already decided. The Solheim Cup moved dates from the scheduled 2004 to 2003 due to The Ryder Cup matches moving into the same years after the September 11 atrocities, and were played at Barsebäck GCC near Malmö in Sweden. The European Team dominated the matches from start to finish. They were led by Swede Catrin Nilsmark, who captained her team from crutches due to a ruptured disk in her back that made walking almost unbearable. The superior shot making exhibited by both sides delighted the first sold out crowd in Solheim Cup history, and almost 100,000 fans had much to cheer about right from the start as the European Team won three of the four morning foursome matches on day one and halved the fourth. As in years past, however, the US. team rallied in the four-ball format that afternoon to close the gap to 41⁄2 to 31⁄2. But as the sun rose over the shores of Öresund on day two Europe blazed a trail. The home team won three of four points in the morning foursomes matches, then pounced as the US team uncharacteristically struggled in the afternoon fourballs, earning two crucial points to take a 91⁄2 to 61⁄2 lead. The final fourball match was one of the most competitive and memorable matches in Solheim Cup history, with Suzann Pettersen and Annika Sorenstam carding two dramatic birdies on the final two holes to defeat Kelly Robbins and Laura Diaz, 1 up. The media coined it one of the best fourball matches ever in the history of the sport and it will long be remembered as both a classic and as the catalyst to Europe’s victory heading into Sunday’s singles matches, now three points ahead of the USA. Needing to win only five of the 12 singles matches in order to reclaim the Cup, Europe wasted no time on Sunday morning. Janice Moodie, Sophie Gustafson, Iben Tinning and Annika Sorenstam all posted European blue on the leaderboards by winning their matches. The 2003 Solheim Cup ended when Catriona Matthew defeated Rosie Jones on the 17th hole of only the sixth match. Five more matches were still being completed, but once Jones missed her birdie try and then conceded Matthew’s 9-foot birdie putt, it was all over. Three of the five remaining matches were conceded to the European Team once the Cup was secured, giving the Europeans the largest margin of victory since the competition began in 1990, 171⁄2 - 101⁄2. In the USA in 2005, Europe attempted to reclaim The Cup at Crooked Stick GC under the leadership of Catrin Nilsmark. It was a tight competition, with several sudden lead changes. Europe won three points out of four in the Friday morning foursomes matches. They had trailed in three matches entering the final stretch but the biggest comeback of all came in the final match. Annika Sorenstam and Suzann Pettersen were four down after 12 holes to Michele Redman and Laura Diaz. Sorenstam lipped out for a hole in one at the 13th, which set up a run of five winning holes, four with birdies for an unlikely one hole victory. In the afternoon four-ball matches both Europe and the USA won two points each to give The European Team a 5 - 3 overnight lead. The U.S. Team, led by Nancy Lopez, claimed three of the four Saturday foursomes matches, Ladies European Tour 2009

The History of The Solheim Cup continued

to even the overall score at 6 - 6 heading into the afternoon four-balls. Both Europe and the USA claimed two points each and the overall score was intriguingly poised at 8-all heading into the final day. Europe's hopes of making history remained very much alive as a total of 6 points were required to retain the Cup with the home side needing 61⁄2 to regain it. The home team won five of the first six singles matches and looked set to sweep to a comfortable victory when they added another point from Natalie Gulbis. But the extra half point for the necessary 141⁄2 winning total took a while to be secured. After Catriona Matthew, Carin Koch and Gwladys Nocera had won their matches, Meg Mallon eventually clinched the deal with a 3 and 1 win over Karen Stupples. The Americans, backed by the home crowd, eventually won 71⁄2 points in the singles and regained The Solheim Cup by 151⁄2 - 121⁄2. The three-point win tied the record for the smallest margin of victory in Solheim Cup history set in 2000 when The European Team won and in 2002 when the U.S. Team won. At The 2007 Solheim Cup in Halmstad, Sweden, Halmstad Golfklubb was the longest venue in The Solheim Cup history at 6,615 yards. Swedish captain Helen Alfredsson’s European team attempted to regain The Cup from Betsy King’s US squad in conditions which included cold, severe winds and heavy rain. The US team had moved ahead by 21⁄2 – 11⁄2 after the Friday morning foursomes. Yet a rally from the Europeans earned a share of the afternoon four-balls and ended with the US leading by 41⁄2 – 31⁄2 overall. Laura Davies pulled off one of the most remarkable winning pars in the history of the competition at the 179-yard par 3 16th hole in the afternoon fourballs. Having hit her tee shot right into a bush, she blasted a shot from the undergrowth and down a slope between two bunkers. From there, she holed a 50 foot chip shot. With the match all square, Davies and Trish Johnson amazingly halved the match with Paula Creamer and Morgan Pressel. The Americans held the lead after the first day of the competition for the first time since The 1996 Solheim Cup at The Marriot St Pierre Hotel and CC, which was the first time they had won on foreign soil. The start of play on day two was delayed by two hours and ten minutes due to gale force winds and the teams halved the Saturday morning foursomes two-all in testing conditions. The second day’s fourball matches were suspended due to darkness with Europe up in three of the four ties. They took the series 3 - 1 on Sunday morning to take a one point lead at 81⁄2 - 71⁄2 going into the 12 singles matches. Europe needed six points to win but their hopes were dashed when the US team claimed the singles 81⁄2 - 31⁄2 to finish 16 - 12 ahead overall. Nicole Castrale defeated Bettina Hauert 3&2 to claim the victory that gave the US the 141⁄2 points required to win The Cup outright. It was only the second time that an away team had won The Solheim Cup and the US team now leads the series by 7 - 3. Annika Sorenstam improved her overall Solheim Cup record to 22-11-4 with a 2-2-1 record at Halmstad Golf Club, and continued to reign as the event’s all-time points’ earner with 24 total points. Laura Davies, who was the only player to have competed in all 10 Solheim Cups, sits just one point behind Sorenstam with 23 points.

The Solheim Cup Facts I Competition The Solheim cup is a biennial, trans-Atlantic team match-play competition featuring the best USA-born players from the Ladies Professional Golf Association (LPGA) Tour and the best European players from the Ladies European Tour. The USA Team leads the competition, 7-3. The European Team has won three of five events staged in Europe. The 1996 and 2007 USA Teams were the only teams, from either side of the Atlantic, to win The Solheim Cup away from home. Dates: Site:

August 17-23 2009 Rich Harvest Farms, Sugar Grove, Illinois.

I Format Three-day, match-play competition. The first two days of competition feature two sessions each day, with a total of eight foursomes and eight four-ball matches over the two days. The final day consists of 12 singles matches. The foursomes format features two-member teams, with players hitting alternate shots using the same ball. At the end of the hole, one score is recorded for the team. In contrast, a four-ball match has each player playing her own ball throughout the entire match. At the end of each hole, the best score of the two teammates is recorded; only one score from each team is recorded for each hole. For the singles competition, one USA and one European player compete against one another. Each plays her own ball throughout the round and records her own score. I Scoring Scoring is based on a points system, with 28 total points available over the three days of competition. One point is awarded for each match won, and half a point is given to each team for matches that end in a tie. As the defending champion, the USA Team needs 14 points in 2009 to retain the Cup, with the European Team requiring 141⁄2 points to win the event.

I The Cup 175⁄8inch Waterford Crystal cup with a 21⁄2inch mahogany base I History The Solheim Cup is named in honor of Karsten Solheim, the founder of Karsten Manufacturing Corporation, which makes PING golf equipment. In 1990, the Solheim family, in conjunction with the LPGA and the then Women Professional Golfers’ European Tour, developed the concept and became the title sponsor for The Solheim Cup, professional golf’s international match-play competition for women. Held every two years, the event has grown into a prestigious international women’s professional golf event. The Cup is the most highly coveted trophy in women’s professional golf team competition; some of the most memorable moments in women’s golf have happened during one of The Solheim Cups, and berths on the USA and European teams are highly sought after by players from both organizations.

Information on the Rolex Women’s World Rankings About the Rolex Rankings I The Rolex Women’s World Golf Rankings – which were developed at the May 2004 World Congress of Women’s Golf – is the first-ever world rankings system for women’s golf sanctioned by the five major women’s professional golf Tours: the Ladies European Tour (LET); Ladies Professional Golf Association (LPGA); Ladies Professional Golfers’ Association of Japan (LPGA of Japan); Korea Ladies Professional Golf Association (KLPGA); Australian Ladies Professional Golf (ALPG); as well as the Ladies Golf Union (LGU), which administers the Weetabix Women’s British Open. I The Rolex Rankings are the only women’s world rankings that incorporate player performances from the five major tours and the Duramed Futures Tour, the official developmental tour of the LPGA. R2IT, an independent software development company developed the software for the Rolex Rankings and maintains the Rolex Rankings on a weekly basis. The Rolex Rankings are updated and released every Tuesday following the completion of the previous week’s tournaments around the world. I Rolex Rankings shares the established men’s world rankings philosophy of awarding points based on field strength and evaluates players’ performances over a rolling two-year period weighted in favour of the current year with even more importance placed on the most recent 13 weeks. I When the Rolex Rankings were introduced in February 2006, a divisor was used to take into account the number of tournaments played by each ranked player, and players had to compete in at least 15 events over the two-year rolling period in order to be ranked. I Effective from the 2006 Weetabix Women’s British Open final results, there was no longer a minimum number of events for a player to be eligible for the rankings and a minimum divisor of 35 was introduced.
