Results and Updates

The winner of the Millennium Trophy with the best 2 rounds out of 3  was Denise Ginley with a total of 76 points with Jacqui Doig as runner up with 75 points.   

The friendly match against Crieff did not take place as they were unable to field a team and  Pitlochry were only able to field a team of 6 instead of the usual 8.   

The Perth & Kinross Handicap League matches have now all been played - the  result of these  is that Blairgowrie won two, lost one and drew one.  Auchterarder and Dunkeld now play in the final.

Medal 7 was won by Mary Hope (Division 1) with a net 73 and Elaine Robson (Division 2) with a net 71.

As at 27th August, the Wee Course Eclectic competition shows Morna Bell in first position so far. 

On 30th August the friendly Tri-Am Club Match with players from Blairgowrie, Panmure and Carnoustie was hosted by the Carnoustie Ladies and was played on the Burnside Course at Carnoustie.  Each team comprised one player from each Club with the format of 1 net score on holes 1-6, 2 net scores on holes 7-12 and 3 net scores on holes 13-18.   The winning team with a score of 134  consisted of  Margaret Hunter (Blairgowrie) May Ritchie (Carnoustie) and Marion Duthie (Panmure).

The Solheim Cup is now underway and one of the European Team may seem familiar to those of you who remember the Junior Ryder Cup at Blairgowrie in September 2014.  The player is Emily Pedersen from Denmark who was 18 when she played at Blairgowrie and turned professional the following year.  Since then, she has enjoyed five wins on the European Tour.   Here's hoping for  success over the weekend.

There is still time to put forward any nominations (which must be duly proposed and seconded) for three  Ladies' Committee vacancies or any other matter relating to the ladies' events and competitions.  These must be received by me by 20th of September for intimation before the Ladies Annual Meeting scheduled for 8th October.
