Chloe Goadby leads the Scottish Amateur Championship Qualifiers
By Colin Farquharson
Chloe Goadby (St Regulus) earned the top seeding spot with rounds of 67 and 70 for nine-under-par 137 after the two stroke-play qualifying rounds of the 140th Scottish women's amateur championship at Golf House Club, Elie in Fife.
The No 2 seed is Connie Jaffrey (Troon Ladies) who won the title at Royal Aberdeen 12 months ago. Her second-round 68 in a 138 total put her ahead of young Hazel MacGarvie (Troon Ladies) who had a 71 on the second day.
The in-form Goadby had a bogey-free, three-under-par 70 in the second round, highlighted by birdies at three par-5 holes, the fourth, ninth and 12th.
Jaffrey had six birdies and one bogey in halves of 32-36. MacGarvie's tally was five birdies and three bogeys in halves of 35-36.
Hannah McCook (Grantown on Spey) qualified in fifth place on 140, being edged out of the fourth seed spot by Hannah Darling (Broomieknowe) whose second-round of 70 was two strokes better than McCook.
