We played our third handicap league match of the year on Monday, 24 July. Although rain threatened a few times, the weather was kind to us with very little breeze and the temperature was even warm enough for some of us to have removed the jumper! The handicaps were well balanced with only one shot given in each of four of the matches and three in the other with neither team being favoured in them all. With the course beautifully presented and fair weather, one would suggest it was perfect for scoring well.
Unfortunately this was not the case for the Blairgowrie ladies. Perth took full advantage of playing on their home course, generally coping with the greens better than Blairgowrie. Unfortunately we lost all 5 matches. Both teams enjoyed the banter afterwards and we very much appreciated the hot drinks and home baking provided by Perth Ladies.
My grateful thanks to the Blairgowrie ladies who gave up their time to represent the Club. The next Handicap League match is away to Dunkeld on Sunday, 6 August. The team was represented by Morna Bell, Heather Dawson, Anne Farquharson, Elaine Robson and Gill Tissell.
