Roehampton Golf Club plays host to the prestigious 81st Ladies Open Gold Challenge Cup this Saturday to kick off the domestic ladies' season.

A field of 60 professionals and amateurs will be hoping to wrestle the famous trophy from defending championns Tracey Loveys and Joanne Oliver as they battle it out over 36-holes for a share of the £1,350 total prize fund.

The two Ladies European Tour professionals shared the title last year when both carded three-under par over two rounds of the Richmond Park course.

Oliver, who claimed the £1,000 winner's cheque on count back, also won the trophy in 1997 and will be looking to make it hat-trick of wins on April 28.
