Preparations underway as Dundonand Links set to host ISPS HANDA Women's Scottish Open
The 2025 event will be the seventh time in 11 seasons that Dundonald Links has welcomed the world's best female golfers. Preparations are well underway at Dundonald Links as the acclaimed Ayrshire venue gears up to welcome back the ISPS HANDA Women's Scottish Open. Taking place from July 24-27, the 2025 event will be the seventh time in 11 seasons that Dundonald Links, part of Darwin Escapes, has welcomed the world's best female golfers for one of the highlights of both the Ladies European Tour and LPGA Tour. Defending champion, Lauren Coughlin, will return to the links, while world number one Nelly Korda is also confirmed to make her debut at the event this summer. Hopefuls will need to contend with the stern test poised by Kyle Phillips' acclaimed links course – in which undulating fairways, tricky pot bunkers and a stiff sea breeze all play a part – to earn the trophy. David Ross Nicol, director of golf at Dundonald Links, said: 'This is now the fourth year in a row that excitement has really started to build around the club as we begin preparations for the ISPS HANDA Women's Scottish Open. 'Of course it's a huge responsibility for everyone here at Dundonald, but it's such a privilege to watch the world's best battle it out on our course. We can't wait for the action to get underway.' The 2025 ISPS HANDA Women's Scottish Open marks the second year ISPS HANDA has been title sponsor, and the fourth consecutive year it has been held at Dundonald Links. The tournament returned to this venue in 2022 having previously been held annually from 2015 to 2017. Rob Wooddisse, golf course superintendent, said: 'The team are hard at work to ensure that the course is in immaculate condition ahead of the tournament. "We have been very proud to receive great feedback from players and caddies in previous years, so the bar has been set high, but we're excited by the challenge.' Also this summer, Dundonald Links will play host to Open Championship Final Qualifying for the third year in a row. Big names are expected to be in the field for what will be their last chance to earn a spot at the 153rd Open Championship at Royal Portrush Golf Club. Dundonald Links' popularity as a golf course took a major leap forward at the start of the century when Phillips completely redesigned the course, but it was a 2019 purchase by Darwin Escapes that elevated the venue into an acclaimed resort complete with accommodation, a popular restaurant and the award-winning clubhouse. Dundonald Links is one of three golf courses within the Darwin Escapes network alongside The Springs Resort & Golf Club in Oxfordshire and Kilnwick Percy Resort & Golf Club in East Yorkshire. Tickets for this year's ISPS HANDA Women's Scottish Open are now available via pre-sale access via this sign up link, and will go on general sale from June 10 at
