Two new caps in England senior women's team
NEWS RELEASE ISSUED BY THE ENGLISH WOMEN'S GOLF ASSOCIATION
The England senior women's team for this season’s major international events includes two new caps.
They are English senior champion Caroline Marron of Cheshire and Surrey’s Felicity Christine. They will join five established players: senior stroke-play champion Roz Adams of Surrey, Jo Ashmore of Norfolk, Sue Dye of Cheshire, Janet Melville of Nottinghamshire and Chris Quinn of Hampshire.
They will play in the European senior ladies’ team championship at the Sporting Club, Berlin, from August 31 to September 4 and the Senior Home Internationals at Sheringham, Norfolk, from September 28-30.
England senior captain Sue Westall is delighted with her team. “This is a fantastically strong team and a really good mix of new and experienced players,” she said.
Roz Adams has just won the English senior stroke-play championship and is well known as a strong contender in senior events.
Jo Ashmore qualified for the match-play stages of the English senior championship, despite needing knee surgery. Four weeks after the operation she came fifth in the senior stroke-play.
Felicity Christine is always in the mix in senior tournaments and this year was a semi-finalist in the senior championship and took sixth place at the stroke-play.
Sue Dye is a past holder of both English senior championships and has been within a whisker of winning the British senior title, losing only in a play-off.
Caroline Marron was the 2001 English stroke-play champion and joined senior ranks last season. She won the English senior championship in April at Littlestone.
Janet Melville won the British championship in her youth and has continued her distinguished career into senior ranks. She is a past senior stroke-play champion.
Chris Quinn is one of the biggest names in English senior golf, having won one British and four English titles.
