The World Financial Group Continental Cup sees Team North America go head-to-head with Team World in a bid for overall glory.
The four-day tournament sees the world’s best players compete in three styles of play — traditional team, skins and mixed doubles.
Team North America will feature four teams from Canada and two from the United States, led by coach Rick Lang and captain Ann Swisshelm.
Team World, coached by 2002 Olympic gold-medallist Pål Trulsen of Norway and captained by Andy Kapp of Germany, will be looking to snap a three-year losing streak.
The side will be made up of players from Norway, Sweden, China, Switzerland, Japan and Scotland.
Anna will play with her Team Scotland teammates Eve Muirhead, Sarah Reid and Vicki Adams.
