Georgia Hall hopes to feed off her love of links golf and passion for the AIG Women’s Open as she goes in search of a second Major title at Royal Troon.

The 24-year-old is enjoying the buzz of the first women’s Major championship of the year, an event Hall memorably won in 2018 at Royal Lytham and St Annes.

Given Royal Troon is set to present similar links challenges, the English player is relishing the task as a star-studded international field tees off at Royal Troon tomorrow.

With the AIG Women’s Open being played safely without spectators due to Covid-19, Hall said: “It’s lovely coming to an event knowing that you’ve won it and done the job in a Women’s Open, my home kind of event. I look forward to this more than any other throughout the year.

“It’s always very special to see all the massive boards everywhere and it definitely feels like a Major.”

The R&A Women and Girls’ Golf ambassador added: “I think it’s an amazing venue at Royal Troon. I love links golf. I only bring the 3-iron out once a year, and this is the week, so I can’t wait. I’ve heard it’s going to be windy, so it’s going to play extremely tough.”

The first-ever staging of the AIG Women’s Open at Royal Troon continues a rich history for the storied club, having hosted The Open on nine occasions. It has also hosted events such as The Senior Open Championship presented by Rolex, The Amateur Championship and the Women’s Amateur Championship.
