Ladies golf tournament The Solheim Cup could return to the shores of Loch Lomond in 2011, if a new bid by Scottish partners is successful.
De Vere Cameron House, EventScotland and partners have submitted a bid to bring The Solheim Cup back to ‘The Home of Golf’ for a third time, following successful competitions in 1992 and 2000.
The event is proposed to be held at the De Vere Cameron House, home to The Carrick, a brand new 7200 yard, par 71 championship golf course, part of a £65 million investment at the resort.
The bid was supported by the First Minister Jack McConnell, who said: “We will offer the best of Scottish hospitality, providing an unforgettable experience that will set a high standard for future Solheim Cup competitions”.
