Sally loses her trolley but still wins !!
Sally Macfarlane won the Lady Captain's Day prize at Douglas Park yesterday despite losing her trolley and clubs out on the course. She was at the long par 5 10th green when she turned round after putting to discover that her clubs and trolley had disappeared! Her playing partners and some gents that were in the game behind helped in the hunt.
Lo and behold the trolley was then spotted in the distance having travelled about 200 yards --- past the 11th tee , missed a ditch and crossed the 4th fairway to end up in the trees next to a field !!
One of her younger and fitter playing partners sprinted across the course to retrieve the wayward trolley. Her game went off at that point and Sally continued her good round to win the prize of the day !
Her tale was shared with the ladies who attended a lovely buffet supper after the event
