It was great to see so many of our up and coming Junior girls enjoying the Ladies golf at Dundonald last week.
One big Min Jee Lee fan was delighted to receive her cap after she finished her round on Sunday! Here she is proudly wearing her gift. Stefi has been a follower of Min Jee since she met her at Dundonald last year and followed her every round this year.
Other than a short, unexpected, shower the weather was ideal for the 56 ladies who took part in our Coronation Medals competition at Seafield today. The course was shortened due to some work being carried out by South Ayrshire Council and it was therefore a non counter. However, there were still some great scores recorded.

1st Gillian Pollock (Skelmorlie) 77 - 10 = 67
2nd Sheila Adams (Loudoun) 82 - 14 = 68

Our Junior girls played their recent competition at Dalmilling golf club. Only 7 entries for this event but there were some excellent scores with Tammi Grady (Irvine) winning with 88 - 16 = 72 closely followed by club mate Orla Moran 84 - 11 = 73
Well done girls
Two of our Juniors had success at the recent Scottish Girls Amateur at Cardrona Golf Club. Freya Russell (Royal Troon) qualified in 2nd place after the 36 hole match play event. She shot rounds of 75 and 76 to finish one stroke behind the top qualifier. In the match play she had a convincing win in the first round followed by a win in the quarter finals by 2 holes. Unfortunately, after a close match, she lost out by one hole to the 3rd placed qualifier in the semi finals.
Katie Ronnie (Barassie) qualified in 2nd place for the nett match play event. She was given a walk over in the first round then won by 2&1 in the quarter finals. Sadly, Katie took unwell over might and was unable to play in the semi finals the next day.
A good event for both girls. Well done
Despite the horrendous forecast the ladies were very lucky today with the weather at Ralston with just a few showers. Fifty one players took part and there were a lot of very positive comments about how much they enjoyed the course with many ladies not having played there before.

It is with great sadness that I report the death of Past Captain, Pat Cairns Smith who celebrated her 100th birthday last year.
Pat was a life long member of The Ladies Golf Club, Troon, having joined in 1939 and also had a very long lasting connection with ALCGA. She Captained the side who won the Scottish County Finals at Prestwick back in 1970.
