A talented young Angus team look set to earn a place in the four-cornered Scottish women's county golf championship finals at Montrose Links in September.

They have won their first two matches in the Northern Division team championship at Monifeith and it would be a big upset if they failed to take Northern Counties - beaten by Aberdeenshire today - in their stride in Monday's closing matches to take the divisional title which is the key to a place in the national finals.

The Angus girls were particularly impressive in demolishing defending champions Perth and Kinross 8 1/2- 1/2 today.
