Today Blairgowrie Mail on Sunday Team, Susan Arbuckle, Sandy Bushby, Janette Hamilton, Barbara Cuthbert and Louise Whitehead, played their first round against Strathmore. The weather was showery, but it didn't dampen the spirits. After 4 pairs finished their matches, the score stood at two and a half to Blairgowrie and one and a half to Strathmore. The ladies waited and watched the last pair on the course to complete their match on the 18th only to find that Strathmore had won the fifth match making the score two and a half to two and a half. This meant that pair number five Sandy Bushby and Cathy McNab had to play a sudden death playoff to decide the winning team. They had to go and get their clubs back out from their cars and put their damp golf gear on. Luckily the sun came out and so did all the team members who came out to support Sandy and Cathy. The sudden death went to the second hole where Sandy managed to sink a crucial putt to get the win for Blairgowrie. Well done to the Blairgowrie team.
