She showcased her talent by winning several prestigious titles, including Scottish Girls' Champion in 1986. After numerous accolades and successes in the sport, Catriona is now a professional player, being named the world's top British female golfer, and in 2009 the first Scottish female golfer to win a major competition.

What are you looking for in your wardrobe?

Colors, look, fit, functionality, stretch in the swing, warmth when I need it, coolness when playing in the sunshine but something easy to put on that gives me warmth on those summer evenings when the sun goes down. I always try to dress in layers, then I have the possibility to adjust the temperature as the weather changes. A good waterproof is also something I constantly have in my bag, as showers come quite often where I tend to play.

You choose to wear abacus^® yourself - do you have a favorite item of clothing?

Grove hybrid vest and jacket. It has a great fit, it’s nice and stretchy in the swing, gives warmth and wind proofness where I need it the most. It’s such a perfect item for golfers. Another favorite are the Druids softshell trousers. They have a brushed fleece on the inside and are super comfortable. Being both windproof and warm, these are a great pair of pants to use for spring golf.
