The players are relishing the opportunity to play at home, but particularly Zuel, who finished third at the venue last year.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cI really can\u2019t wait for the tournament: it\u2019s going to be brilliant. I was really hoping it would be here this year,\u201d said Zuel, who lives in Esher, Surrey. \u201cFor me it\u2019s perfect because it\u2019s only half an hour from my house so a lot of home support. The course was just in such great condition and I\u2019m looking forward to coming back and playing. I played nicely and I\u2019m looking forward to coming back and trying to re-create that.\u201d<br \/>\nHull was equally excited and said: \u201cIt would be great to win on home turf, wouldn\u2019t it? I like to play a Pro Am before the tournament because it gives you that little bit more, extra feel of the golf course and you meet new people. I came 17th here (last year). I played good; it was really fun. I played with Carly Booth and Melissa Reid the first two rounds.\u201d<\/em><br \/>\nFellow teenager Taylor was also savouring the prospect of playing \u2018at home\u2019 and said: <em>\u201cI think it will be a good atmosphere for the English players, because it\u2019s not often that you get a home tournament, so I think it will bring a good buzz and hopefully a lot of spectators.\u201d<\/em><br \/>\nMeanwhile, like the other golf and media professionals, Liz Young, Charlotte Ellis and Holly Aitchison rated the course highly. Ellis, from Cheltenham, said: \u201cI really like the golf course. It really suits my eye, its well set-up and the condition is always fantastic. It\u2019s always a pleasure to come here and play.\u201d<br \/>\nAitchison said:<em> \u201cIt\u2019s in fantastic condition again. I don\u2019t think I\u2019ve ever played this course when it hasn\u2019t been in great condition. As I\u2019ve said before today, it\u2019s a great test of golf; it\u2019s fair and I\u2019ve always really enjoyed playing here.\u201d<\/em><br \/>\nMeanwhile, Young commented: <em>\u201cI thought the Buckinghamshire Golf Club was in fantastic condition and the weather is only going to get better so for July is going to be fantastic. Hopefully I\u2019ll get up here a couple more times before July to play it again.\u201d<\/em><br \/>\nWith a Pro-Am taking place on Thursday, July 25 before the three tournament rounds, a superb week of fun and entertainment for all the family will be on offer at the ISPS Handa Ladies European Masters, in a unique, garden party style atmosphere.<br \/>\nAdvance season tickets are available for just \u00a310, so pre-register now at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ladieseuropeanmasters.com \">www.ladieseuropeanmasters.com <\/a>to avoid missing out!<br \/>\nBuckinghamshire Golf Club has excellent road and rail links to most of the UK, located just inside the M25, off junction one of the M40 and close to the M3 and M4.
