Hello, it's Martin Dempster, the Scotsman Golf Correspondent here coming to you from
00:07
the Belfry, one of the iconic venues in European golf and venue for this week's Betfred British
00:16
Masters hosted by Sir Nick Faldo. The European legend is filling that role for the second
00:23
year running and he's been around the place today as players warm up, get themselves ready
00:31
for an event starting on Thursday. On this occasion it also marks the start of Europe's
00:38
Ryder Cup qualification battle, a 12-month process that the European captain Luke Donald has tweaked
00:50
for the 2025 match at Bethpage Black in New York State. Instead of two points lists,
00:58
separate points lists, he's rolled it into one on this occasion. The top six players on that
01:05
points list will qualify automatically for Donald's team and he'll then be left with six
01:13
captain's picks to take on an American side that is now going to be captained by Keegan Bradley.
01:22
A number of Scots are here this week, not Bob McIntyre, Bob's in America, he's playing in the
01:29
PGA Tours season-ending Tour Championship. He's certainly a player that'll be aiming to be on
01:34
Donald's team in New York next year, having made a winning debut for the Europeans in Rome last
01:41
year. However, the likes of Ewan Ferguson, Callum Hill, Conor Syme, Grant Forrest, they'll all be
01:48
looking to get off to a flying start in that qualification battle and then try and get
01:53
themselves into the frame for that European side heading across the Atlantic next September. To
02:01
keep up to date with everything about the Betford British Masters Europe's Ryder Cup qualification
02:06
battle, log on to Scotsman.com or buy the Scotsman.
