KIMBERLEY GETS A CALL-UP INTO "HELEN HOLM"

Kimberley Beveridge, pictured, three-handicap Aboyne teenager, sacrificed a chance to win the Aberdeenshire women's county championship at Balgownie this weekend in the hope that she would come off the reserve list - she was first reserve - and be able to play in the Helen Holm Scottish women's amateur stroke-play championship at Troon, beginning on Friday, the same day as the qualifying round of the county championship.
The latest news is that Kimberley is now in the field. She will tee off at 8.40am in the first round at Troon Portland with Gabrielle Macdonald (Craigielaw) and Daisy Wakelin (Deer Park) as partners.
Kimberley's brother Keil, a teaching professional at Inchmarlo Golf Centre, Banchory, is taking Kimberley and Laura Murray (Aboyne) down to Troon by car for a practice round or two.
