Roehampton Golf Club plays host to the prestigious 81st Ladies Open Gold Challenge Cup next weekend to kick off the domestic 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 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.
