West Inter Divisional County Matches 2016

Well Ladies, after three days of fantastic play, we as a team cannot thank our caddies, supporters and well wishers enough. Without you guys behind us that 12th hole would have defeated us long ago!

For those who couldn't make it, let me fill you in. On the first day Ayrshire were narrowly defeated 5-4 by Lanarkshire, with all our matches being very close, most coming down to the last few holes.

Day two had us battling it out against Dumbarton and Argyll. Again the girls played fantastic, and were just pipped at the post. The end result doesn't show how close the matches were however D&A came out on top with a 6.5-2.5 win.

Ayrshire redeemed themselves on the final day by beating Renfrewshire. After gaining out first foursomes point in the morning, the team went out all guns blazing in the afternoon to secure a 5.5-3.5 win allowing us to just sneak into third place ahead of Lanarkshire.

The final over all results were:

1st. D&A (2 wins, 1 loss. 16pts)
2nd. Renfrewshire (2 wins, 1 loss. 14.5pts)
3rd. Ayrshire (1 win, 2 losses. 12pts)
4th. Lanarkshire (1 win, 2 losses. 11pts)

Well done team for a fantastic 3 days. And a most importantly thank you Captain Liz, you had a tough first year, but never stopped believing we could get that win.

Scottish Ladies 2016

Connie carded another 69 today to finish 1 stroke behind Jess Meek who had a 6 under par round to lead the qualifiers on 137.  

Louise Duncan playing in this event for the first time, had a splendid 72 and is tied 12th for the matchplay tomorrow.  

Emma Hale was one better today with 74 and Lorna Ronnie also improved on her 1st round with a 77 today.  

Unfortunately Connie and Lorna meet in the first round of the matchplay tomorrow (10.30 a.m.) but this should be a great match to watch so why not come along and support both Ayrshire players.

After a splendid 78 today, young Rachel Foster qualified tied 8th (161) for the next flight of 16 who compete in the Clark Rosebowl. Rachel plays former Scottish Girls' Champion Lesley Atkins who was 167 after the two days.  

W.K.'s Catherine Garrett, with Nancy Chisholm on the bag, had 83 to add to her 80 and Catherine plays M. Gardner tomorrow who was 162.  

Claire McLaughlin played to her handicap today recording an 87.   Alex Glennie added another 82 but is unavailable to play in the Clark Rosebowl.
