The Curtis Cup in Wales

by | Aug 27, 2021 | Golf Shoes

After the 2020 Curtis Cup was postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic, two teams of the best amateurs in the USA and Great Britain & Ireland landed at Conwy Golf Club in Wales for this week’s games.

The US team includes Rose Zhang and Rachel Heck, the No. 1 and 2 amateurs in the world. Both players travel to Stanford shortly after the end of the Cup. On the GB&I side, three players come right after the cut at the AIG Women’s British Open, the final major of the season: Louise Duncan, Annabell Fuller and Lauren Walsh.

Check out the pictures from picturesque Conwy as the two teams fight.
