Lottie Woad spearheads the Great Britain and Ireland side for the Vagliano Trophy later this month.
The leading player on the World Amateur Golf Ranking® (WAGR®) is part of the eight-player GB&I team for the meeting with the Continent of Europe at Royal Hague Golf & Country Club in the Netherlands from 27-28 June. Non-playing captain Maria Dunne also includes Woad’s fellow Curtis Cup players Beth Coulter, Hannah Darling, Aine Donegan and Patience Rhodes in her line-up. All were part of the win over the USA at Sunningdale last September.
