LESLEY ATKINS JT 3rd FINISH AFTER WEATHER WIPES OUT ROUND 4

The final round of the North of England open Under-16 boys and girls' championships was cancelled after bad weather hit the Pannal course in Yorkshire.

That meant the placings after the morning third round became the final standings.
Lesley Atkins (Gullane), pictured, winner of the Scottish Under-18 girls' match-play championship last year when she was only 15, finished a creditable joint third on 226 with scores of 77, 72 and 77 against a CSS of 76, 74 and 75.
Long Ashton's Bethan Popel came through from several shots off the pace to win the Under-16 girls' title, thanks to an excellent final round of 71 for a total of 223. Her earlier rounds had been a pair of 76s.
Runner-up on 225 was Spain's Ainhoa Olarra with scores of 73, 75 and 77.
Sharing third place with Lesley Atkins on 226 was another Spanish player, Marta Martin with scores of 76, 75 and 75.
The Scot had several highly-rated English youngsters behind her in the final standings.
Junior Vagliano Trophy player Amber Ratcliffe (Royal Cromer), for instance, finished fifth on 227 with scores of 76, 76 and 75.
