Last Chance to Watch Links Golf for a While

The LPGA and LET team up over again this week to present the Aberdeen Standard Investments Ladies Scottish Open. This yr it is played on the Renaissance Club in North Berwick, Scotland -- similar to the men's Scottish Open -- so we will get some "girls' hyperlinks" in the end.

Defending champions Ariya Jutanugarn

Tony Jesselli has posted certainly one of his commonplace fantastic previews at his site, so I'm linking you to it here. I'll just notice that Ariya Jutanugarn is the defending champion, albeit at a specific direction, and Tony is reporting that the sphere isn't as robust this week as it become remaining yr. I consider it truly is a reaction to playing majors in consecutive weeks. With a one week ruin coming after the Scottish Open anyway, this is an smooth way to get two weeks off.

The maximum extraordinary player to skip this week -- for my part besides -- is Jin Young Ko. Jin is the recent player on Tour right now, while Ariya has cooled off after last 12 months's torrid run. Between Jin's absence and Ariya's lull, this may be an opportune time for a number of the decrease-ranked players to thieve a bigtime win.

GC's coverage begins Thursday at 10:30am ET, which I'm guessing will be late round live coverage.

As I said earlier, that is possibly our final threat to look links golf till the Alfred Dunhill occasion in September, so don't miss it!
