CATRIONA AND MHAIRI ARE SCOTLAND'S

PAIRING FOR WOMEN'S WORLD CUP

Scotland will be represented by Catriona Matthew and Mhairi McKay in a field of 20 countries for the 2008 Women's World Cup of Golf at Sun City, South Africa from January 18 to 20.

Sweden will be one of the favourites for the title with the in-form Sophie Gustafson and Maria Hjorth teaming up to challenge the defending champions from Paraguay - Julieta Granada and Celeste Trioche.

Ireland does not have a team in the $1.4million because their female professionals are not high enough up the world rankings.
