In the second semi final Alison Davidson beat defending champion Elaine Moffat (St.Rule) by 6&5. Despite the conditions the standard of golf was very high.

The final in the afternoon was played in very tricky conditions, not wet, but very blustery. 

Although Alison took an early lead they were all square at the turn. Linda went 2 up winning the 10th and 11th holes. Despite Alison winning the 12th hole with a birdie, Linda stuck to her task winning the 13th, 14th and 15th holes and the match 4&3.

In this afternoon's final Elaine continued to show her class in a low scoring match. She has now ‘done the double’ holding both the Scottish Seniors and Scottish Veteran Ladies titles.

ELAINE MOFFAT WINS THE MIDLAND VETS CHAMPIONSHIP



From Lorna Bennett

Elaine Moffat (St Regulus)  on Tuesday 19th June won the Midland Vets Championship at the Montgomery course, Kinross with a 2&1 victory in the final over Dianne Watson (Leven GS) and Elaine will now represent Midland Vets in the S.V.L.G.A. Championship at Blairgowrie on 23d and 24th September.

In the morning's semi-finals, Elaine defeated Linda McDonald (Ladybank) in a lovely match and the winning margin of 5&4 did not fairly represent how well Linda played.

In the second semi-final, Dianne beat defending Champion, Fiona de Vries, (St.Rule) by 7&6 - Dianne's amazing putting being just too much for Fiona to overcome.

The afternoon's final was played at a fast pace in dry, breezy conditions and was a pleasure for the small band of caddies and supporters to watch.

RESULTS:

Semi-finals:
Elaine Moffat beat Linda McDonald 5&4
Dianne Watson beat Fiona de Vries  7&6

Final:
Elaine Moffat beat Dianne Watson 2 & 1

Fine win for Midland Vets against North Vets



Lindsey McNiven (North Captain) present trophy to Lorna Bennett (Midlands Captain) 

The Midland Vets team scored an emphatic 5-2 win over the North Vets in their annual match yesterday (10th May)  over Blairgowrie GC's Lansdowne course and in so doing won the Inter-Divisional Trophy outright for the fifth time in the last six years. 


In 2017 the match was halved. In bright but cool, breezy conditions the team - boosted this year by new members Elaine Moffat and Linda Allan - played excellent golf inspired by Champion Fiona de Vries's valuable victory over fellow Senior Internationalist, Sheena Wood. 

Win or lose, everyone enjoyed the day with a course in excellent condition and lovely food served in the clubhouse. Not even very heavy late showers could spoil the party.

Elaine Moffat beat Lynn Fotheringham 5&4 
Linda Allan lost to Frances Miller 1hole 
Dianne Watson beat Jackie Brown 2&1
