The R&A offers golden tickets to women's open
The AIG Women’s Open aims to champion the changing face of golf and The R&A is working with golf clubs across Scotland to inspire the next generation of golf fans to attend the championship.
Participating clubs will award a golden ticket to junior golfers who, in their own play, exhibit the values of the AIG women’s open including inclusivity, inspire others to enjoy the sport and actively engage with golf on and off the course.

They will then be welcomed back to Carnoustie to experience all of the action on the four competition days.
While junior golfers can be lucky winners of a golden ticket and the VIP experience, all children under the age of 16 will be admitted free of charge, when accompanied by a ticket holding adult, to the AIG Women’s Open.
A youth ticket for those aged 16-24 can be purchased from £10.
