HOME HEROES READY TO LIGHT UP ARAMCO TEAM SERIES – LONDON

English trio Georgia Hall, Charley Hull and Bronte Law are relishing the opportunity to perform on home soil at the Aramco Team Series – London. 

Centurion Club plays host to the second edition of the tournament, which has a format of a 54-hole Individual event alongside a 36-hole Team event. 

The prize fund of USD $1 million is split between the two competitions with a prize pool of USD $500,000 for the Team competition and USD $500,000 for the Individual competition.

In October last year, Hull clinched the Individual crown at the Aramco Team Series – New York and has already teed it up this year playing in Bangkok. 

The three-time LET winner picked compatriot Annabel Dimmock in her team, and they will be joined by Norway’s Karoline Lund.

“Winning by five shots is very special and I managed to keep it together the last few holes and lift that trophy. My season so far has been pretty good. 

“I have been very consistent. Obviously, a win and some high finishes. I’m really looking forward to the very busy run we have now and always nice to play in England.”

While Law, who is joined in her team by Catriona Matthew and Moa Folke, heralded the recent win of Linn Grant at the Volvo Car Scandinavian Mixed and is looking forward to being a team captain once again. 

“It’s absolutely fantastic,” said Law. “I think that maybe people stop using the argument that people aren’t as outstanding as the men given that she beat them by nine shots. I think it’s a great thing for the game and I hope that she gets that acknowledgment.

“Being a team captain, it encourages you to balance out your team well. Usually are only concerned with yourself on…
