Kelsey MacDonald beat Annabel Dimmock in the Scotland v England quarter-final of the Orange Blossom Tour's Jones-Doherty match-play tournament at Coral Ridge Country Club, Fort Lauderdale in Florida.
Stirling student Kelsey, 22, the top seed from Nairn Dunbar GC, beat the 16-year-old Annabel (Wentworth) from Ascot, the ninth seed, by 7 and 6 to reach the last four in which the Scot will play the No 5 seed, Marie Arnoux from Miami Beach.
MacDonald was beaten finalist in this tournament in 2009. This is her last appearance on the Orange Blossom Tour. Kelsey, who will complete her degree course at Stirling before the summer, intends turning professional later this year.
The other semi-final will feature Ashlan Ramsey, the No 10 seed from Georgia, against 13-year-old Mika Liu from Beverly Hills, California but an eighth grade pupil at St Stephen's Middle School in Florida.
Mika finished second after leading in the Harder Hall Invitational, the opening event of the Florida amateur women's January circuit.
Results (players from USA unless stated):
