TOP TEN FINISH FOR SALLY AFTER 78 KILLS VICTORY CHANCE

Sally Watson finished joint seventh in a field of 70 players despite a disappointing second and final round of seven-over 78 in the Peg Barnard Invitational women's college tournament over her home course at Stanford University, California.
The Edinburgh-born player, a Curtis Cup player in 2008 and 2010, was joint second after an opening par-matching 71. Had she been able to repeat that score of even have a 72 or 73, Sally would have won the tournament.
She had double bogeys at the long seventh and par-4 15th, and managed only one birdie, at the long 12th.
Watson finished four strokes behind the joint winners - there was no play-off - Emily Childs (California) (71-74) and Christine Uhalde (Fresno State) (70-75) on 145.
Sally was the highest placed finisher in the Stanford University squad who finished second in the team event to California. Leading totals:
587 California.
606 Stanford
607 Washington
608 Oregon State, Fresno State.
12 Teams took part.
