Orla Rooney wins the Renfrewshire County Junior Championship

Orla Rooney

The Renfrewshire Junior County Championship Final between Orla Rooney [Cowglen] and Jennifer Lynagh [Caldwell] arranged with courtesy at Erskine Golf Club had a late rescheduling due to heavy rain overnight and the closure of Erskine today.  


Both players coped well with the last minute change and the match was played at a very windy Kilmacolm Golf Club.

JENNIFER RANKINE WINS THE 2020 HAGGS CASTLE CLUB CHAMPIONSHIP AND HEATHER MUSHET WINS AT ELDERSLIE

Jennifer Rankine - 2020 Haggs Castle Ladies Champion


Haggs Castle GC Finals Day
took place today in glorious sunshine.  

The Ladies final pitted 4 times champion Jennifer Rankine against 2014 Champion Laura McGeachy, a repeat of 4 previous Ladies Championship Finals. 

Both players had been in good form recently and the final was expected to be a close contest.  So it proved.  

Jennifer was 1 up playing the 11th and both players were slightly short with their tee shots.  Laura unfortunately missed an opportunity to get back to level. After halving the 12th Laura drove into trouble at 13th and went 2 down. 

Laura was again in difficulty at 14th to go 3 down.  The 15th was halved leaving Jennifer 3 up with 3 to play.  

The 16th was played well by both players but the resultant half left Jennifer a 3& 2 winner and Champion for the fifth time. 

Many thanks go to Neal Stewart for the report and photograph
