Your chance to win one of the Limited Edition TaylorMade Staff Bags made to honour this week's AIG Women's Open

This year’s AIG Women's Open returns to the iconic St Andrews Old Course course for the third time. With that in mind, the TaylorMade staff bag and accessories honour the venue’s traditions dating all the way back to 1552 and celebrate Scotland’s fabled national pride.

COMPETITION IS NOW CLOSED

Ahead of the final Major of the season, Women & Golf spoke to TaylorMade Golf's Senior Design Manager Linda Melzani Hitchenor who designed this year's bag - read the full interview here.

Sacred Scottish Grounds

There’s no question where this year’s final Major is being played. The white and blue Scottish flag stands out as the bold backdrop for this year’s bag. On the sides of the bag, blue TaylorMade logos appear in blue stitching and are adorned by Scotland’s national flower, the green and pink thistle.

The inner linings of the pocket also celebrate the thistle’s pink colour that’s woven into a tartan pattern. On the side panels below the TaylorMade logo, a unicorn is featured. According to ancient lore, the unicorn was the only animal capable of defeating England’s national animal, the lion. A unicorn also appears on British passports.

The staff bag’s front features some notable details that are closely tied to this year’s venue. On the pink handle, the word ‘HOME’ appears and pays tribute to the storied course. On the valuables pocket, a silhouette of the infamous St. Andrews Cathedral is shown.

The ball pocket features a portrait of Mary Queen of Scots, who is said to be the first woman to play a round of golf at the host venue in 1552. The same year is found just above her portrait in white script to commemorate the occasion.

The host venue is also home to the first women’s golf club. A tribute to the occasion shows up on the bag’s bottom with the year 1867 and the words ‘First Women’s Golf Club’ prominently featured.

On the back side of the bag is a heart with the initials W and K surrounding it on either side. This pays respect to Prince William and Princess Kate, the Duke and Duchess of Rothesay who met while they attended university together in this host venue’s city.

Headcovers and Accessories

Thistle colours and tartan patterns make themselves known on this year’s blade and mallet putter headcovers.

The driver and fairway wood headcovers continue with the same themes that are featured on the staff bag: green and pink thistle, a portrait of Mary Queen of Scots, and a gold silhouette of St. Andrews Cathedral set against a Scottish blue background.
