CALLING ALL GOLFING MOTHER AND DAUGHTERS

NEWS RELEASE
The 2010 Mothers and Daughters' 27-hole stroke-play foursomes, at Royal Mid Surrey Golf Club, Richmond, Surrey, will be played on Saturday, April 17.
This unique and historic event has been contested since 1932 and past winners include some of our greatest women amateur golfers dating back to 1935 when Pam Barton won the event with her mother the year before she became British and United States Champion.
Other distinguished winners include past Curtis Cup players, Jill Thornhill with her daughter Caroline Weeks, Liz Boatman and daughter Alex Howe, Lady Angela Bonnallack with her daughter Glenna Beasley and most notable Angela Uzielli, who dominated the event from 1965, winning an extraordinary 22 times with her mother Peggy Carrick and once with her daughter Caroline in 1996, before her untimely death in 1999.
Although the event always attracts a stong field and the title, for the lowest scratch score over the 27- holes, is fiercely contested, there are also net prizes for the higher handicaps and a delicious lunch!!
Following in the footsteps of all these greats, English international, Alexandra Peters, who reached the semi-finals of this year's British girls' championship, and her mother Ann, from Notts Ladies have won the event for the last two years. Can they make it hat-trick!!
If you and your mother or daughter would like to play in the 2010 Mothers and Daughters please contact the competition organiser, Frances McAdam, for an application form at fmmcadam@aol.com.
