Elaine Cuthill (Lanark), leading qualifier for the match-play stages of the Lanarkshire women’s county golf championship, continued her good form on the second day at Hamilton..
Elaine swept through to the last four with wins over Doroth McTaggart (Cambuslang) and Angela Devine (Hamilton).
Miss Cuthill now plays Lesley Lloyd (Hayston) for a place in the final.
Lesley, the fifth qualifier, fought back from being three down at the 11th to win by 2 and 1 against Liz Lees (Hamilton), the No 4 seed.
The other semi-final will be between defending champion Jenna Wilson (Strathaven), the No 3 qualifier, and Alyson Hendry (Hamilton), the seventh seed.
Jenna was four under par in her 6 and 5 win over May Hughes (Lanark) who had two birdies and could only halve the holes!
Alyson Hendry holed a number of long putts and chipped in from very wide of the green at the short 12th for a birdie 2 on her way to a 2 and 1 win over the No 2 seed, Fiona Norris (Hamilton), the GB&I team manager.
