No Scottish or English Women's Opens
on LET circuit next year

Prize money on the 2009 Ladies European Tour is expected to reach a record mark in excess of 12.1 million Euros ... despite the fact that there is NO Women's Scottish Open and NO Women's English Open.
The only Ladies European Tour event in either Scotland or England next year will be the Ladies Golf Union-organised Ricoh Women's British Open at Royal Lytham & St Annes.
