PLAY IN R&A JUNIOR OPEN

The Scottish Ladies Golfing Association has nominated Annabel Niven, a member of Crieff Golf Club, to play in the R&A Junior Open golf championship at Hesketh, Lancashire from July 14 to 16.
Annabel, whose family home is at Tibbermore to the west of Perth, is the 16-year-old sister of Roseanne Niven, Scottish girls' champion in 2006 and a semi-finalist in the British women's open amateur championship at North Berwick last weekend.
The R&A competition, which draws competitors from around the world, is for boys and girls aged 16 and under.
Those with handicaps of three and under play 54 holes, those with higher handicaps play 36 holes.
After the tournament is finished, the R&A give all competitors the opportunity to attend the Open championship at nearby Royal Birkdale.
