Ladies Scottish Open Preview: Matthew

Former Women’s British Open champion Catriona Matthew eased to a ten-shot victory at the Aberdeen Asset Ladies Scottish Open in 2011, so we went along to Archerfield Links in the run up to this year’s event to see what it’s going to take to lift the title once more.

The three-day tournament takes place at the East Lothian links venue starting tomorrow (May 3) and will see some of Europe’s leading ladies battle it out for almost £200,000 in prize money.

Watch the video above to find out what she thinks about her chances of defending her title in 2012 and what competitors can expect from Archerfield’s Fidra Links course.
