Hayfever victim Eilidh Briggs
drops out of Scots' line-up

Eilidh Briggs (Kilmacolm), pictured right by Cal Carson Golf Agency (all rights reserved), had to withdraw from Scotland's line-up for this morning's foursomes against England on the second day of the Girls' Home International matches at a wet and overcast Panmure Golf Club, Barry near Carnoustie.
Her place as partner to Annabel Niven (Crieff) in the third foursomes off the tee against Kelly Tidy and Alex Peters was taken by Lesley Atkins (Minto), winner recently of the Scottish Under-14 girls championship at The Glen, North Berwick.
"Eilidh has suffered a bad attack of hayfever over the past day or so and she is simply exhausted," said Susan Simpson, the Ladies Golf Union Director of Championships.
"It is too early to say if she will be able to play again before the three-day programme ends on Thursday."
