LADIES OPEN TEXAS SCRAMBLE 22ND SEPTEMBER 2026

Ladies Open Texas Scramble

One hundred and twenty four ladies took part in the last Open of the year at Blairgowrie Golf Club in the Texas Scramble teams of 4.  This was a fun format with a minimum of three drives each and a nearest the pin on the 15th hole for one lady.  The weather was kind to us which made the day a pleasure for all the visiting ladies to play on Rosemount.

Ladies Tombola raised a wonderful £286 for Ladies Captain's charity CHAS.   Thank you to all ladies for donating to this wonderful charity.

Thanks to the volunteers for running the desk, office staff, catering and green keepers who have all helped to make the day run smoothly.

Winners

1st Prize £100 each to Isabel Hay, Olive Leitch, Elaine McKinley and Patricia Graham 

2nd Prize £75 each to Kay McAllister,  Stella Bowers, Pam Wheeler and Fiona Lane 

Nearest the Pin on the 15th Hole £40 to Jean Driscoll

Report

The ladies arrived in time for breakfast rolls and hot drinks before hitting the fairways.

The weather was not ideal, quite windy with a few squally showers, which made the course feel a bit long and difficult for some of us.

Nevertheless, everyone enjoyed the experience.

Post play we were served a lovely 2 course meal in the wood panelled dining room.

It was good to relax and enjoy our food in a beautiful room which we had to ourselves , allowing plenty of post-match chat.
