	Davies will be flanked by friends as she makes her European Tour debut this week
		Davies will become the first woman to compete in a European Tour or Australasian Tour event -- the ANZ Championship is sanctioned by both circuits -- and continues a trend started most famously by Annika Sorenstam at the Colonial last year and taken on, with rather more success, by 14-year-old American wunderkind Michelle Wie.

		Davies said the criticism had been "a shame" but insisted she was not flying into Port Stephens to make any kind of a point.
