ULSTER LIVE UP TO FAVOURITES TAG IN STROKE-PLAY QUALIFYING
Irish Women's Inter-provincial Matches
Royal County Down Golf Club, April 27 to 29
NEWS RELEASE ISSUED BY IRISH LADIES GOLF UNION
Ulster confirmed their status as favourites finishing in first place following the stroke-play qualifying round today and will play Connacht for a place in the final. Munster take on Leinster in the other semi-final.
The championship links course which measures 6,261 yards, with a par of 76, provided a tough test for competitors who played 18 holes strokes (six from eight scores to count) before two days of match-play. Ulster's Louise Coffey posted the best score of the day - a 75. She birdied the second and ninth holes, had a bogey on the eighth but was level par over the back nine to finish one under par.
