NORTH OF SCOTLAND GIRLS
LAURA MURRAY WINS NORTH OF
SCOTLAND GIRLS TITLE AT KIRRIE
Alford’s Laura Murray produced her best performance since winning the Scottish schoolgirls’ title last year when she landed the North of Scotland girls’ championship at Kirriemuir Golf Club today (Sunday).
Two-handicapper Laura had six birdies in a one-under-par round of 72 but after running up a bogey 6 at the last she had only a shot to spare from Eve Whitehead (Pitlochry).
Eve played well above her six handicap and had four birdies. A double bogey 6 at the 10th was to prove costly in the final analysis.
Scratch player Michele Thomson (McDonald Ellon), the North of Scotland women’s champion and Scottish schoolgirls title winner this year, finished third with a 74 – her last competitive outing before leaving for a four-year golf scholarship with Jacksonville State University, Alabama this week.
Gillian Wilson (Monifieth) won the Jean Law Trophy for the best net score – a net 69 off 17.
Eve Whitehead had a net 67 off six but the scratch prize list took precedence.
