MATCH FRIENDLY BLAIRGOWRIE V STRATHMORE AWAY 26TH MAY

 Our ladies enjoyed  a lovely welcome on a beautiful day at Strathmore.  The azaleas and rhododendrons in full bloom are a particular feature on various holes and the course was in excellent condition.  The greens were tricky for us with lots of undulations.  Strathmore won the day 4-0.

Thanks go to Linda Rice (Team Captain) Eileen Brown, Fiona Edwards, Denise Ginley, Heather Dawson and Jacqui Landsburgh, Jo Menzies and Louise Whitehead.

FRIENDLY MATCH V CRAIL 18TH MAY

 Our ladies set out to play in clear, sunny albeit windy conditions for our match at Crail on Monday, 18 May.  Thankfully the weather remained kind to us for the most part with the cold wind and rain appearing towards the end of some rounds.

Balcomie was in excellent condition with the sunshine making the views even more spectacular.  

We enjoyed a delicious meal, much needed hot drinks and some home baking post golf before the results were announced.

The matches were keenly contested but Blairgowrie secured a 2 1/2 to 1 1/2 win.

Thank you to Fiona Johnstone, Fiona Edwards, Jo Menzies, Mary Miller, Gill Tissell, Anne Farquarson and Maggie Marshall (Team Captain) for representing Blairgowrie.  A special thank you to Margaret Johnstone for stepping in to play at very short notice.

HOME FRIENDLY MATCH V CARNOUSTIE CALEDONIA 11TH MAY

 We welcomed the Carnoustie Caledonia Ladies in cool but dry conditions.  Rosemount was looking in superb condition, a fact commented on by the visiting team members, and we all appreciated that the divotting squads had been out that morning.  The Carnoustie Ladies were particularly complimentary about the quality of our greens.  Some excellent golf was witnessed and mention must be made of the Carnoustie lady who had an eagle on the 1st!  However, the home team prevailed with an excellent 3-1 win.

The post-match meal was enjoyed by members and visitors alike and we were well looked after by the catering and bar teams.

Many thanks to the Blairgowrie Ladies: Eileen Brown, Brenda Clough, Anna Farquharson, Louise Luke, Jo Menzies, Linda Rice, Angela Rooney and Gill Tissell (Team Captain).
