ABSENT JESS MEEK DROPS TO THIRD IN PAUL LAWRIE TOUR ORDER OF MERIT

Jess Meek missed this past week's two Paul Lawrie Golf Centre Scottish Ladies Open Tour events because she was on international duty for Scotland women's amateur team in the European championship at Fulford Golf Club, York.

Her absence allowed two professionals, Katy McNicoll and Heather Stirling, to relegate her to third place in the Tour's Order of Merit.
Katy, pictured in her Royal and Awesome trousers, is the new leader with 4,365pt from six events.
Heather is lying second with 3,649pt from eight events.
Jess is now third with 3,585 from six events.
