The Spanish team that has traveled to the British Ladies Stroke Play 2010 - scheduled for August 18, 19 and 20 at Tenby Golf Club (Wales) - combines large doses of experience with youthful audacity, a mix that could be decisive in achieving a good overall result in a tournament that has traditionally seen little Spanish participation.

The players who will participate in Wales are Camilla Hedberg, Mireia Prat and Inés Tusquets from Barcelona – who will also act as captain – Noemí Jiménez and Rocío Sánchez from Malaga and Adriana Zwanck from Madrid.

The international experience of Mireia Prat, Inés Tusquets, and Adriana Zwanck is a factor working in their favor. Prat is clearly on the rise, with high-profile performances in international competitions in Finland and Germany, and in the European Team Championships, where she led the Stroke Play phase. Adriana Zwanck, for her part, knows what it's like to win in the United States, and both she and Inés Tusquets have played important roles with their national teams.

The youngest members of the delegation are Camilla Hedberg, Noemí Jiménez, and Rocío Sánchez, who arrive in Wales from British Girls and with bronze medals from the Under-18 European Team Championships held in early July. These three young women have excelled in Junior Zonal Qualifying Events and top-level national championships, and have already made the leap to major international competitions. Indeed, Camilla Hedberg won the Spanish Junior International in 2009.

The best Spanish performance in recent years was that of Emma Cabrera from the Canary Islands in 2007 at Comwy. The islander finished third, three strokes behind another current professional, England's Melissa Reid.
