HANNAH AND GRACE LEADING SCOTS BEHIND ENGLISH 1-2-3-4 AT MORTONHALL

 Hannah Darling (Broomieknowe), 13 year old winner of the Scottish U18 girls championship earlier this month, and Grace Crawford (Gullane) are the leading Scots, in a share of fifth place behind four players from England at the end of the first day of the 36-hole Scottish U16 girls' open stroke-play championship at Mortonhall Golf Club, Edinburgh.
Darling and Crawford both shot four-over-par 77s to be four shots behind the joint leaders, Alexandra Stevenson (Beamish Park) and Thalia Kirby (Harleyford).
Shot of the day came from Evie Stone (East Devon) who holed her tee shot at the par-3 10th hole on her way to returning an 82.
