While Leanne Pace & Laura Davies both have 5 wins on Tour this season, Pace leads the Hendersen Money List. Laura Davies tightened that reign with her recent win at the Hero Honda's Women's Indian Open. The possibilities for taking that title are: if Davies wins and Pace is 2nd, Pace will still claim the top of the List. So, Laura will be hoping for the win and at least a 3rd place spot for Pace.
There's a strong field lining up for the Omega Dubai Ladies Masters, with Defending Champion In-Kyung Kim returning with hopes to match Annika's victory feat of winning back to back titles. In-Kyung Kim had to battle with Michelle Wie to take the title last year. She will however, be secured the title of Ryder Cup Wales Rookie of the Year award, when she surpassed Maria Hernandez of Spain in the Tour Order of Merit for this season. As it stands now, Diana D'Alessio, Christina Kim & Kim Welch of the USA will be in the field. Also competing are Anna Nordqvist of Sweden, Carin Koch and Louise Freeburg and Julieta Granada. All of these players I've named, will be playing by exemption status.
Also heading to the final event for the LET Tour is last year's Big Break winner Carling Coffing, who will be making her innaugural appearance at the Emirates Golf Club for the tourney that runs from Dec. 6-Dec. 11th. You can follow live scoring on the LET Tour home page via this link LET Tour and click on "Live Scoring". As most of you know from Carling's time on the Big Break, she has learnt to have a "never give up attitude" which came from being diagnosed with diabetes at just 5 years of age.
The tournament is the 4th richest on the tour, behind the Evian Masters, the Women's British Open and the Women's World Cup of Golf. The prize is 500,000 euro, broken down as such; Winner receives 75,000, 2nd place 50,750 , 3rd place 35,000 , 4th place 27,000 and 5th place 21,200.
