The most decorated Scot to ever play the LPGA said goodbye at the Old Course in her 30th and final appearance at the AIG Women’s British Open. The winningest Scot in tour history won four times on the LPGA and posted 104 top-10 finishes. She also led Europe to two stunning victories in the Solheim Cup and did the same for Great Britain and Ireland at the Curtis Cup over the summer.
Matthew’s most incredible feat as a professional, however, was winning the Women’s British Open 11 weeks after giving birth to her second child.
While the AIG was her final LPGA appearance, the “superman” will continue to play some senior golf.
