"My point is you want him on the team. There is a pathway for him to play the Ryder Cup if he wants it. The field includes Sara Byrne, a hero of Great Britain and Ireland’s Curtis Cup team, who has turned pro after going unbeaten in the home team’sThis week’s field will be competing for £72,000 compared with £59,000 in 2023, the highest purse on the LET Access Series - the feeder circuit that leads to the LET."It’s an honour to have Sara here," Rose said. "She’s a bubbly character and plays golf unbelievably well.
"It has always been very important for me and Kate to promote women’s golf, to get the narrative around talent that is around here," Rose said. "And more importantly to lead by example and push things as far forward as we can."
