Scots chase more glory in 29th edition of DP World Tour event
It’s
the event that sits alongside the Alfred Dunhill Links Championship
when it comes to delivering the most Scottish success on the DP World
Tour in the past 25 or so years.
Andrew
Coltart started the ball rolling when he got his hands on the iconic
Mother of Pearl Trophy in the inaugural edition of the Commercial Bank
Qatar Masters in 1999 before Paul Lawrie triumphed the following year at
Doha Golf Club then again in 2012.

Ewen Ferguson landed another tartan triumph in 2022 and he’s excited to
be back at the same venue for this week’s 29th edition as part of a
bumper 11-strong Caledonian contingent. “Yeah, it would be cool to get
my hands on that trophy again because it is something else,” admitted
the 29-year-old.
