ASHTON INGRAM IMPROVES IN US

ASHTON FINDING HER FEET IN STATES

Fort William teenager Ashton Ingram is beginning to find her feet in golfing terms at Belmont Abbey College in America. Ashton, 18, a freshman student at the North Carolina college, finished joint 24th in the Flagler Fall Slam women’s college tournament at World Golf Village, St Augie in Florida on Tuesday.
It was Ashton’s highest finish since she went to America in August and this was the first time she had the lowest total of the five Belmont Abbey College team players in the tournament.
Miss Ingram had scores of 76 and 85 for 161 over the 5,987yd, par-72 course.
Victoria Jackson (West Florida) won with rounds of 71 and 77 for four-over-par 148.
West Florida (613) won the team event by one stroke from Nova Southeastern. Belmont Abbey (662) finished seventh of the 17 colleges participating.
