KRYSTLE AND DANIELLE FINISH IN TOP
TWENTY OF TAR HEEL INVITATIONAL

Krystle Caithness (Georgia University) had rounds of 72, 74 and 75 for a five-over-par total of 221 in the Tar Heel Inviational tournament at the UNC Finley course (par 72, 6,285yd) at the weekend.
That gave the Cellardyke, Fife teenager a joint 16th finish in a field of 93. So keen is the competition at this level that had Krystle been able to par the last two holes of the event on Sunday, instead of bogeying both of them, she would have finished joint 10th.
She had seven birdies over the 54 holes, a triple bogey 7 at the ninth in her second round and nine bogeys.
Ireland's Danielle McVeigh (Texas A &M) had scores of 75, 75 and 72 for joint 19th place on 222.
Duke (877) won the team event from Tennessee (879) with Georgia and Auburn joint third on 885. There were 18 college teams taking part.
America's Curtis Cup ace Amanda Blumenherst (Duke) won the individual honours by three shots with scores of 71, 68 and 70 for a seven-under-par total of 209.
