Henry is part of a strong Scottish contingent lined up for the ‘women’s week of golf’ aimed at taking women’s golf to a new frontier in Saudi.

The week will start on Sunday with the $1m Aramco Saudi Ladies International presented by PIF, which will then be followed by the $500,000 Saudi Ladies Team International – Saudi Arabia’s first ever ladies golf events.

It’s Henry’s first outing since September when she finished tied for sixth at the Lacoste Ladies Open De France in Le Pian-Medoc.
