On Friday 9th May, Isabel Renwick Gray, Jodie Williams and Anna Freidinova and a group of our Lady members visited The Buckinghamshire Golf Club for the Rose Ladies Series 2025.
The Rose Ladies Series is five one day events across England, started by Justin Rose and his wife Kate in 2020 during the pandemic. Justin and Kate pledged to put their own money into a series of events to give the ladies an opportunity to keep playing.
The 2025 Rose Ladies Series took place at;
- West Lancs Golf Club, Monday 28th April – won by Chloe Williams
- Southport & Ainsdale Golf Club, Wednesday 30th April – won by Lydia Hall
- Formby Ladies Golf Club, Friday 2nd May – won by Meghan MacLaren
- St. George’s Hill, Tuesday 6th May – won by Hayley Davis
- The Buckinghamshire, Friday 9th May – won by Hannah Screen
Since the creation of the series there has been almost 40 events and over £530k has been paid out in prize money.
We were very fortunate to have been given the opportunity to go a watch the final day of the series. When we arrived on the day we were given our badges and welcomed into the clubhouse.
Some of our Lady members then went straight out onto the course to watch the amazing Dame Laura Davies play her round. She was in the first group that tee’d off that morning and she played alongside Hannah Screen, who would go on to win the whole event.
We then went and watched some groups tee off the 1st before heading out for a walk around the course which allowed us to watch lots of different players, including Carly Booth, Meghan MacLaren, Vicky Prietzel and Emily Dixon (Am). We sat down at the 4th tee box which also had views of the 12th green, where we watched a number of groups come through.
Some of our members followed their friend, Hannah Ralph, around the course and cheered her on.
After a couple of hours wandering the course, we headed back to the Clubhouse and met up with some of our members for a lovely lunch on the back terrace, overlooking the putting green and the 18th green. The food and service from the staff was amazing, they were very welcoming and were asking us all about what club we had come from.
After lunch we headed back out onto the golf course as it was recommended we visit the 16th and 17th holes, there water features and the challenge that comes with them. Here we bumped into Carly Booth and Meghan MacLaren again and watched them play the last couple of holes.
Whilst standing at the 16th fairway we started talking to another spectator who explained that he was the very first member to join The Buckinghamshire golf club back in 1992, he coincidentally had played the Park course, a number of years ago.
We followed Carly and Meghan to the 17th tee and watched them finish their round, before finding a safe spot to sit to the right-hand side of the 17th green. We watched a number of groups come through this hole and it was interesting to see whether the players would take on the challenge of the large water hazard or take the safe option down the side of the fairway.
Here we saw some amazing shots onto the green but also some more trickier shots as seen in the below picture, where her golf ball is on the steep slope in the bunker.
We sat on the 17th for little while watching the players come through, soaking in the sun and a snack from their halfway hut.
Some of the ladies stayed to watch the prize giving and see Hannah Screen be crowned the winner.
What an amazing day we had watching this event; we were extremely lucky to have been given this opportunity and hope to do more of these in the future.
A big thank you goes to The Buckinghamshire for organising and hosting us for the day, it is an incredible club to visit and an exciting lady’s event to watch. To Pauline, Stephanie, Amanda, Deborah, Dawn, Joy, Alicia and Siobhan, thank you for joining us and I’m so pleased that you enjoyed the day as much as we did.
Congratulations to Hannah Screen on winning the final Rose Ladies Series of 2025!
