GEMMA BACK TO HER OLD STICKS AND HER LOWEST COLLEGE SCORE
US COLLEGE UPDATE
FROM JOHN DRYBURGH
They
say golf is a game of inches and for Gemma Dryburgh that seems to be true.
She has always had shafts which were around one inch short. Having been fitted for new clubs in December, the club fitter decided she didn't need to shorten the shafts.
She has always had shafts which were around one inch short. Having been fitted for new clubs in December, the club fitter decided she didn't need to shorten the shafts.
However, after some inconsistent
performances since, culminating in the 81 at the UCF tournament earlier
this month ( a tournament she was runner-up in last year) which resulted
in her losing her top 100 slot for the first time this season, she and
her coaches decided that the club fitter was wrong and she decided to
pull out her old sticks.
The results were immediate and have helped her to her lowest collegiate score on the first day (Sunday) at her home tournament, the Allstate Sugar Bowl at English Turn, New Orleans.

In
blustery conditions, Gemma shot a four-under-par 68 to sit equal second
level with Stephanie Meadow and one behind Finnish team-mate Emily
Penttila.
Tulane currently sit atop the team leaderboard with a record-equalling team score of six under par.
