Aberdeenshire finals abandoned at Peterhead,

rearranged for Tuesday, May 12 (1pm)

This afternoon's (Sunday) Aberdeenshire scratch and handicap women's county championship finals were abandoned after four holes due to gale-force winds and heavy rain at Peterhead Golf Club.
They have been rearranged for Tuesday, May 12, teeing off at 1pm.
Sammy Leslie (Aberdeen Ladies) was one up on Kimberley Beveridge (Aboyne) when play was halted in the scratch final. They will resume on the fifth tee
Beveridge repeated last year's semi-final win over Sheena Wood (Aberdeen Ladies), the No 1 seed. The Aboyne teenager won by 4 and 3, thus ending Sheena's hopes of a sixth title, for this year at least.
Leslie, who lost to Shannon McWilliam in last year's semi-final, beat Carol Wilson (Murcar Links) by one hole to reach the final
It is Sammy's third final. She lost in 2009 to Sara Thomson but won in 2010 (bt Donna Pocock at 19th) and again in 2013 (bt Sheena Wood 6 and 4).
It is Kimberley's second appearance in the final. She lost to Shannon McWilliam last year at Meldrum House.
In the handicap final, Morven Adam (Hazlehead) (handicap 12) was one up on Sandra Ross (Peterhead) after four holes.
