Aboyne’s Carmen Griffiths claimed the biggest win of her successful career when she beat Hamilton’s Katie Graham 4 & 2 in the final of Scottish Girls’ Amateur Championship at Strathaven.

The 2019 European Junior Vagliano Trophy team member came into the championship in second place on the 2021 Scottish Girls’ Order of Merit and she showed why she is currently ranked only behind Curtis Cup hopeful, Hannah Darling, on that list with a series of impressive victories in her march to the final.

The new champion’s toughest match came in the second round when she was taken to the 18th hole by fellow Scottish international, Rachel Foster, from Prestwick St Nicholas but she then beat Parkstone’s Alice Webb 6 & 5 in the semi-finals before proving too strong for Graham in the afternoon.

Graham had previously knocked out top seed, Forfar’s Robyn Fowlie, in the second round and then beat Shrewsbury’s Isla McDonald-O’Brien 6 & 5 to earn her place in the final. 

Griffiths went ahead as early as the second hole of the final and was three ahead after ten holes before Graham clawed one back on the 11th. Griffith increased her lead again with wins on the 12th and 14th and though Graham won the 15th that reprieve proved to be short-lived when Griffiths sealed victory on the very next hole.

Lindsay Main claimed a popular victory on her home course in the concurrent Scottish Girls’ Net Amateur Championship. 

The Strathaven player beat Elderslie’s Ava Graham 2 & 1 in the semi-finals and then collected the trophy following an emphatic 7 & 6 triumph over Paisley’s Katie Dunn in the final. She was pulled back to two up when Dunn won the seventh but then won five successive holes from the eighth to clinch the Aynsley Reid Salver.

Earlier Dunn had reached the final after securing a 7 & 5 victory over Lucie Barclay from Kilmacolm.

Katie Graham Seals Last Grasp Win Against Top Seed

Katie Graham from Hamilton Golf Club

Katie Graham from Hamilton booked her place in the last four after beating top seed Robyn Fowlie in the quarter-finals of the Scottish Girls’ Amateur Championship at Strathaven.

Graham secured a convincing 4 & 3 victory over Royal Troon’s Freya Russell in the morning but then had to come from behind to claim a last gasp victory over Forfar’s Fowlie on the 19th hole.

Graham’s opponent in the last four is Isla McDonald-O’Brien from Shrewsbury who also had to go to the 19th hole in the morning before beating Hazlehead’s Rachel Mathieson and then defeated Ruby Watt from the Paul Lawrie Golf Centre 4 & 2 in the last eight.

In the other semi-final Aboyne’s Carmen Griffiths will face Alice Webb who plays out of Parkstone in Dorset who won against Jennifer Lynagh from Caldwell Golf Club by 2&1

Griffiths had a straightforward 8 & 7 victory over Strathmore’s Kirsten Miller in the first round but then had a much tougher test against Rachel Foster from Prestwick St Nicholas after lunch. 

Foster reached the quarter finals of the recent Scottish Women’s Amateur Championship at Gullane where she lost to eventual champion Chloe Goadby and against Griffiths she led all the way until her opponent drew level on the 15th and then went ahead for the first time in the match on the 18th hole. 

The semi-finals of the concurrent net match play competition will see Elderslie’s Ava Graham face Strathaven member Lindsay Main and Paisley’s Katie Dunne goes up against Lucie Barclay from Kilmacolm.

CARMEN GRIFFITHS IS 3RD IN THE JUSTIN ROSE TELEGRAPH JUNIOR CHAMPIONSHIP

From the Telegraph Newspaper

The Justin Rose Telegraph Junior Golf Championship witnessed a record-breaking climax here on Friday (15th November) as Ben Schmidt and Mimi Rhodes wrote new marks into this event’s 34-year history. 

While Schmidt’s 15-shot triumph looked barely in question from the first day of this 54-hole tournament, Rhodes’ glory was in dispute until the 16th green, as she stood level with her playing partners, Wales’s Darcey Harry and Scotland’s Carmen Griffiths (Aboyne) 

But then, the Somerset 17-year-old sealed the debate in emphatic and, indeed, unprecedented fashion. No girl had ever finished off birdie-birdie-eagle to lift this salver before. That final trio proved to be the colossus of Rhodes. A two on the 16th, a two on the 17th and a three on the 18th… suddenly Rhodes was celebrating a four-shot triumph over Harry with Carmen Griffiths another three shots back in third. 

The tears fell as Mimi was hugged by her younger sister Patience, who put in a notable display herself on this Quinta do Lago North Course by finishing fifth.

Scot Evanna Hynd from Lundin Golf Club finished in 6th position

 Press Release 28th October 2019 

At the season end prizegiving ceremony held at Aboyne Golf Club on Saturday night, the club awarded Kimberley Beveridge ‘Honorary Membership’ in recognition of her outstanding achievements in the Amateur Game. 

Making the award, Club President Justin Grant said “Kimberley has had a fantastic last few seasons culminating in her being crowned Scottish Women’s Amateur Champion at Barassie this year. She is also the current Aberdeenshire Ladies County Champion, having won this at Murcar a few weeks earlier. 

Justin went on, “A talented junior, Kimberley was a 3 times Aberdeenshire Girls Champion and represented Scotland Girls and Schools teams. Amongst other highlights Kimberley has regularly represented Aberdeenshire Ladies and helped them win the Team County Championship for the first time in 32 years in 2018. She also won the prestigious St Andrews Junior Ladies Open Championship in 2018. 

Kimberley won her first full international cap for Scotland in 2014 and her recent form led to ‘Scottish Golf’ selecting her to win her second cap representing her country in the R&A Women’s Home Internationals at Downfield, Dundee in August of this year.” 

Kimberley, aged 24, is a former pupil at Aboyne Academy who still lives in the village and works part time in the professional’s shop at the course.

The Thai's superb second round of 63 was the score, in the final analysis, that separated her from the field.

Two  other Scots in the field, Carmen Griffiths (78-81-75-74)  for 309, and Katy Alexander (83-80-86-79) finished 39th and 58th respectively.

Shannon McWilliam Tied 2nd in English Strokeplay Championship

Hertfordshire’s Rebecca Earl survived a late scare to claim the first international title of her career at the English Women’s Open Amateur Stroke Play Championship at Ipswich Golf Club yesterday. 

The 19-year-old from Bishops Stortford bogeyed the last for a one over par 73 and then faced an anxious wait to see if Whitley Bay’s Rosie Belsham could catch her but in the end her two-under par total of 286 proved to be enough to give her a one-shot victory over Belsham, Stoke by Nayland’s Lily May Humphreys, Scotland’s Shannon McWilliam from Aboyne and Sharna Dutrieux from Wrotham Heath

Humphreys made a late charge in a bid to add to the Welsh and Irish Women’s Stroke Play titles she won earlier in the season but in the end a birdie at the last for a 68 was not quite enough.

Scottish international McWilliam also moved up the field with four birdies in the opening 15 holes of her final round but a bogey at the last meant she had to settle for a 69 which left her one shot short.

Aboyne Golf Club continues to make waves on the International Front

Top - Kimberley Beveridge
Bottom - L to R  Shannon McWilliam and Carmen Griffiths

Aboyne Golf Club continues to make waves on the international stage, with three of its female members being called up by Scotland. - 

From the Deeside and Piper Herald

Shannon McWilliam, Carmen Griffiths and Kimberley Beveridge will represent their country in the Home Internationals at Downfield, Dundee between August 5-7.

Shannon, 19, and Kimberley, 24, are in the ladies team whilst 15-year-old Carmen is in the girls squad. Both teams comprise seven players.

The R&A Women’s Home Internationals were first played in 1902 whilst the girls competition was first played in 1935. Scotland were crowned ladies champions in 2018 after defeating Ireland on home turf in the deciding match at Ballybunion.

Teams from England, Ireland, Scotland and Wales compete against each other in matches which consist of three foursomes and six singles, each over the same 18 holes, with the foursomes being played first.

The scores are calculated by team results, with each team scoring one point for a team win and half a point for a halved match.

If two or more countries score an equal number of team points and have each won the same number of individual games, the tie will be resolved by aggregating the number of holes played in individual games won and the team with the fewest number of holes played is the winner.

Aboyne ladies captain Janice Innes said: “It is a 
delight to have three of our 
female members chosen for the Home Internationals.

“Whilst we have been aware for a long time of their respective outstanding talent, it is great to see their hard work and ability recognised by others. We wish them all every success during the tournament.” 

Club president Justin Grant added: “Everyone at Aboyne Golf Club is so pleased and proud for all three of them. For Aboyne to have three representatives at international level, including the Scottish Amateur champion, is truly unique. 

“I doubt there is another club in the home nations – women or men – that can boast such an achievement. As well as reflecting on their individual hard work and dedication, it also shows what a fantastic golf course Aboyne is to hone your skills.”

Kimberley won the Scottish Women’s Amateur Championship at Barassie recently, and was crowned Aberdeenshire Ladies county champion a few weeks earlier at Murcar.

Shannon and Carmen represented GB & Ireland against Europe in the senior and junior Vagliano Trophies at Royal St George’s the same weekend as Kimberley’s triumph at the end of June.

Carmen battled her way into the last eight of the Scottish Girls’ Amateur Championship at Rosemount, Blairgowrie earlier this month while last year Shannon won the Border Championship at East London in South Africa.

Scottish Girls and Boys Amateur Championship begins on Friday

 Blairgowrie Golf Club

Almost 200 young Scots will tee it up in Perthshire this week as the Scottish Boys and Girls Amateur Championships get underway at Blairgowrie.

The Girls’ Amateur Championship will be held on Blairgowrie’s Rosemount course.  The format for this event will be an initial 36 holes of strokeplay qualifying held on Friday 19th July before the top 16 progress to the knockout stages held over the weekend.  The next best 16 nett scores will also qualify for a handicap matchplay flight held over the same days.

The highest ranked player in this week’s Girls’ Amateur will be Aboyne’s Carmen Griffiths who will be looking to win the trophy for the first time.  Griffiths was a member of the Junior Vagliano team in June and will look to take inspiration from her Aboyne clubmate Kimberly Beveridge’s recent triumph in the Scottish Women’s Amateur.

Home hopes will lie with Katy Alexander who recently made it to the last-16 of the Scottish Women’s Amateur at Edzell.

Prestwick St Nicholas’s Rachel Foster will also be hoping for a good week after reaching the quarter final stage of the Women’s Amateur last month.

Brilliant Beveridge crowned 2019 Scottish Women’s Amateur Champion.

From the Scottish Golf Website

Kimberley Beveridge from Aboyne Golf Club worked hard in gusting winds to come out on top against Chloe Goadby in a thrilling Scottish Women’s Amateur Championship Final.

Down by one hole at the half-way point in Sunday’s Final, Beveridge battled back to birdie the first three holes on the back nine to take her first lead of the match at the 12thhole. A par on 13 was enough to give Beveridge a two-hole lead with five to play.

Still 2 up with three holes to play, Beveridge looked in control of the match, however Chloe Goadby refused to back down as she birdied holes 16 and 17 to tie the match with one to play.

With little splitting the two players all day, it was Beveridge’s sensational approach shot on 18 that would separate the pair as her 8-iron from 131 yards stopped just short of the hole to set up the winning putt.

Speaking to Scottish Golf (video above) after winning on the last, Beveridge said, “I struck that last shot really good actually, it landed probably about 20-feet and rolled down nicely to the hole. The nerves kicked in for that two-foot putt, but I just went for the stroke and it went in.” 

On being crowned Scottish Women’s Amateur Champion, Beveridge said, “Hearing that sounds really good, I am absolutely buzzing. I didn’t expect it to be honest, I just plodded along and played my own game and came away with the result.” 

Beveridge had earlier beaten Tara Mactaggart of Minto Golf Club with a 2&1 Semi Final victory while runner up Goadby reached the Final with a 3&2 victory against Louise Duncan.

The Clark Rosebowl Matchplay brought yet more success for Aberdeenshire golf with Banchory’s Megan Robb seeing off Nairn’s Carinne Taylor by two holes.

Speaking to Scottish Golf, Robb said, “It was difficult today, the conditions are tough and Carinne is a good player. It could have gone either way, going down the last I was nervous, and my hands were shaking. With being 1 up, I just said to myself don’t do anything dumb. I was able to put it on the green and hole my putt which was nice.” 

With two players from Aboyne also representing GB & Ireland at the Vagliano Trophies this week, the newly crowned Scottish Women’s Amateur Champion believes women’s golf in the region is in a good place, adding, “It is really strong at the moment and it is good to see some younger girls coming in to the game which is what we need, it is really good.”
