Laura Davies shoots for yet another title at the $1.5 million Safeway International, which starts Thursday.

Davies won this event a record four straight times from 1994-97. A 20-time winner on the LPGA Tour, she has not won an event in seven years.

But Davies, 44, showed some real glimpses of her best form last year, winning a European Tour tournament in Austria.

“I did play very well last year and definitely think I could win again in the States,” said Davies, a native of England. “I came close a few times and it was just a pity that I didn’t manage to get another victory. But I’m confident going into the new season.”

Defending tournament champion and world No. 1 Lorena Ochoa also headlines a field that includes seven other winners of this event.

After winning her first event of the season in Singapore earlier this month, Ochoa finished tied for eighth two weeks ago at the Mastercard Classic.

Former world No. 1 Annika Sorenstam, Karrie Webb, Julie Inkster and Se Ri Pak also will tee off Thursday at the Superstition Mountain Golf and Country Club.

Since its launch in 1997, Golf International has forged a reputation as the standout quality title in golf publishing. The caliber of columnists, writers, players and coaches is unrivalled, while the design and layout of the magazine separates it still further from the competition. In a congested market wrought with mediocrity, Golf International appeals to committed golfers who are as serious about their game as we are about ours.

The ethos behind Golf International is simple: our aim is to entertain, inform and educate our readers with a wide range of fresh and original editorial. Peter Alliss, Ian Wooldridge, Colin Callander, Tom Cox, Paul Mahoney, Clive Agran and John Huggan are listed among our regular columnists. Other notable contributors include Paul Trow and David Davies. We are particularly proud of our association with the teaching staff of the DLGA, who, under the guidance of the world’s No.1 coach – David Leadbetter – provide some of the finest instruction you will find anywhere. Monty’s coach, Denis Pugh, is another regular contributor, as is leading European Tour coach, Peter Cowen, and one of the world’s most innovative instructors, Robert Baker. The popular Senior Tour player, Tony Johnstone, has also made Golf International his literary home.

With the generous and on-going support of Volvo Car UK, we are committed to developing our Amateur pages, featuring regular profiles, interviews and tournament news from both the men’s and women’s amateur game. Another innovation has been our Business pages, which provide the magazine with a unique angle on business-related stories, along with regular features from our resident experts on golfing memorabilia (Kevin McGimpsey), betting (Jeremy Chapman) and motoring (Anthony ffrench-Constant). We hope you enjoy the magazine and invite you to be a part of our continued success.

With a new distribution partner – Comag – in place from the August ’06 issue (and already delivering a significant increase in newsstand sales), we will be raising our game in the retail sector while at the same time consolidating our position as the premium title in the air and selected-sponsorship sectors.
