Wednesday was not a good day for Scotland's standing in the world of female amateur golf. Our girls failed to make the top flight in the European girls' team championship in Norway and our women's team, once again, failed to make the top eight championship flight in the European women's team championship in Italy.
England (third) and Wales (eighth) made the top flight but Scotland finished ninth in the 36-hole qualifying test and so were "relegated" to the Second Flight which includes Ireland, but that's no comfort.
