BRITISH GIRLS CHAMPIONSHIP

CAITHNESS LOSES TO MOZO ON LAST
GREEN IN BRITISH GIRLS


Krystle Caithness (St Regulus), who won a play-off at the fourth hole to be the 64th and last qualifier, lost her first-round tie in the match-play stages of the British girls' open amateur championship over the Portstewart links in Northern Ireland.
Krystle did very well to take the top seed and British women's open amateur champion Belen Mozo from Spain to the 18th green before going down by two holes.
Carly Booth (Comrie) advanced with a 4 and 3 win over English girl Sarah Tyson (Redlibbets).
In an all-Scottish encounter, Roseanne Niven, the Scottish Under-18 champion from Crieff, beat Laura Murray (Alford) by one hole.
