Well … we played the Inter-Counties Championship at Cardross Golf Club this week.
It was a wee bit different due to Covid. It was nice to see all our friends from Ayrshire, Lanarkshire and Renfrewshire. We had close games and nail biting finishes. We (Dumbarton and Argyll) managed to come out on top😳 It was a pleasure to be Team Captain and thanks to our County Captain Jean, and her committee, for managing to get it played this year. Now we have a wee road trip to Forres for the finals in August 💙🏌🏼♀️
Thanks go to Lorraine Campbell (D&A) for her report and photograph
At the start of Day 3 three of the counties were in contention to win. In a close match with some close games between Ayrshire and D&A , D&A won by 4.5 to 3.5.
This meant that D&A could only be beaten if Renfrewshire beat Lanarkshire. After 6 games were completed the score in that match was 3 all but Lanarkshire won the last 2 games at the 18th to win 5 to 3. - 5 of the 8 matches ended up going down the 18th !!
D&A last won the Inter County Jamboree in 2016 when it was played at Douglas Park Golf Club when D&A was the host county and now again at Cardross with 3 home players in the team have won again on County home soil.
