Eilidh Briggs continues her good form in the Renfrewshire County Matchplay Championships

Defending Champion Eilidh Briggs continued her good play in the matchplay stages of the Renfrewshire County Championship by 2 convincing 7 & 6 wins in both the morning and afternoon ties. She was 1 under par in both games when she defeated Denise Cowan in the morning and then Renfrewshire County Team mate Gillian Kyle in the afternoon --  again being 1 under par. She now meets Alyson McKechin in top half of the draw in tomorrow's semi final.
Alyson was 2 under par when she "disposed" of your webmaster Carol Fell in the morning and then had a ding dong battle with former 10 times Renfrewshire Champion Donna Jackson and eventually won 2 and 1.
In the bottom half of the draw Carol Whyte had a good win against local Haggs Castle Player Nicky Henderson and then played well in the afternoon to beat up and coming youngster Linsey Stevenson.
Carol now meets Megan Briggs in the other semi final tomorrow . Megan beat Lesley Cosh in the morning and then had a tussle against Liz Stewart but managed to win through by 1 hole.
