SECOND DAY REPORT AND SCORES FROM 100TH SCOTTISH WOMEN'S AMATEUR CHAMPIONSHIP
CONNIE JAFFREY TOP SEED, AILSA
SUMMERS SECOND BEST - NOW FOR
THE MATCH-PLAY AT PRESTWICK!
SLGA PRESS RELEASE
By ELSPETH BURNSIDE
Connie Jaffrey added a 76 to her first round 73 and led the qualifiers on one over par 149 at the 100th staging of the Scottish Ladies’ Championship at Prestwick.
The Troon Ladies’ member maintained her four shot overnight lead with Carnoustie’s Ailsa Summers moving into second place after a best of Championship 72.
In joint third place on 154 were a strong trio of defending champion Alyson McKechin (77) and the Briggs’ sisters from Kilmacolm , Megan and Eildih.
Megan, the 2009 Champion at Southerness, posted a 75, while Eildih, who will represent GB and Ireland at next month’s Curtis Cup, shot 76.
Elderslie’s McKechin, who won the title at Longniddry 12 months ago, had three birdies on a near perfect golfing day on the south Ayrshire coast.
Jaffrey, the 2013 Scottish U18 Girls’ Champion, highlighted her round with four birdies and the pick of the bunch came at the short second where she came close to a hole in one.
“I hit the ball to a foot and then did it again for another of my birdies at the 17th,” said the 17-year-old who is playing in the Championship for a first time.
“I was delighted to maintain my four shot lead and t’s a good feeling to head the strokeplay qualifiers.”
AILSA SUMMERS
Summers’ hole of the day was the long eighth – she made eagle – and she also had a handful of birdies in the two under round.
Eilidh Briggs was runner-up at Machrihanish three years ago and she had three birdies to finish among the top seeds.
“The conditions were definitely easier,” said the 21-year-old Stirling University student. “The wind wasn’t nearly so fierce.”
Thirty-one players on 169 and better made it straight into the matchplay knock-out and Jane Finnie (Troon Ladies) clamed the 32nd and final spot by defeating beat Carol Whyte (Milngavie) at the second hole of a sudden-death play-off.
Having halved the first extra hole (the 15th) in bogey fives, Whyte hit her second shot out of bounds at the 18th and eventually conceded the hole. Finnie’s reward is a first round match against clubmate Jaffrey.
