She went on to play in her first professional event aged 14, finishing an impressive 13 at the Ladies Scottish Open. Booth's early pro career was highly successful and she won her first event in May 2012 - the Ladies Scottish Open. Her second Ladies European Tour triumph came the following month when she won the Swiss Open. Booth would have to wait seven years for her third LET victory, triumphing at the Czech Ladies Open in August 2019. A hugely popular player, her athletic ability and occasional unleashing of some BACKFLIPS on the course earned her plenty of fans. But her golf career has been full of frustration in recent years, with injury absolutely wreaking havoc. First of all, she required shoulder surgery in 2020 before making a return. A freak accident in 2022 saw Booth slip in her kitchen, and she felt her knee pop out. The injury required surgery and in early 2024, she underwent the knife again to undergo a reconstruction of her ACL.

In those days, a return to professional golf might've seemed a distant dream but this week, it will become a REALITY for Booth. More than three years on from her last LET appearance, she's part of the field for the Tenerife Women's Open. She revealed in a social media post late last year that she was eyeing a positive 2025. Booth said in October: "I have to admit, it's been tough having surgery on both knees this year. "A constant uphill battle, but feeling positive and making great progress. "Looking forward to what next year brings." The Tenerife Women's Open is back on the LET schedule for the first time since 2011. Booth and the rest of the field will head to Abama Golf on the west side of the island. Booth has already checked in to the impressive resort for some practice. She also shared a snap chilling out in a jacuzzi ahead of Thursday's opening round. Keep up to date with ALL the latest news and transfers at the Scottish Sun football page
