Banff 5 day Tournament -- Lesley Watson is a winner

Cogratulations go to Lesley Watson of Cambuslang who beat Ros Dunsmuir (Cruden Bay) on the 18th to win the Doune Cup (Scratch Competition) at Duff House Royal in their Banff Open Week.
Agnes Carter of Kirkintilloch won the Low Handicap competition.
Also of note was Vicky Lindsay of Kirkintilloch who has not been in the best of health recently and hadn't played in a competition this year, went out in a buggy and shot a 66 (6 under her handicap), got cut and qualified for the matchplay. Unfortunately she lost in the first round. Not bad though for a Lady in her eighties. She's also entered for next year !
There were 195 entrants taking part in this Golfing Week and I have been informed that Brenda Livingstone (Lamlash) was the oldest qualifier in the Scratch Section!!
Well done to all in the West of Scotland who took part in this excellent golfing week
