| Lanarkshire County Team are out to beat Renfrewhire |
Both teams have played twice and won twice. Lanarkshire followed up their 6-3 win over Ayrshire by beating Dunbartonshire and Argyll 5 1/2-3 1/2
The foursomes were shared 1 1/2-1 1/2. The decisive singles victory for Lanarkshire came from Susan McGrenaghan who drove the 17th and holed her 3ft putt to beat Aileen Baker 2 and 1.
McGrenaghan had been four up after 13 but Baker won three holes in a row to slash her deficit to only one hole. Renfrewshire, big-margin wins over Dunbartonshire and Argyll in their first match, had a tougher time of it against Ayrshire before winning 6-3.
Former Scottish champion Megan Briggs was four down after 10 to Ayrshire's Roz Purdom but rallied so well that she won on the 18th green to give Renfrewshire a 4-2 lead in the singles after taking the morning fursomes 2-1.
