EILIDH v CONNIE WOULD BE DREAM FINAL FOR WEST OF SCOTLAND GOLF FANS
By COLIN FARQUHARSON at Prestwick
Colin@scottishgolfview.com
Curtis Cup debutante Eilidh Briggs is about a 6-4 favourite to win the 100th staging of the Scottish women's amateur golf championship this week at Prestwick's ancient links, the birthplace of the Open championship from 1860 to 1870.
But it is one of the quirks of the World Amateur Golf Rankings - which run in 12-monthly cycles - that the Kilmacolm player is "only" the third best Scot after the most recent revision.
Aberdonian Gemma Dryburgh, a student at Tulane University, New Orleans, is the highest ranked female Scot in the world and, like Briggs, will be making her Curtis Cup debut against the Americans at St Louis, Missouri from June 6 to 8. But Dryburgh is still in America, and will be playing in the upcoming NCAA Division 1 women's team championship.
But the World No 2 in Scottish terms is in the field of 110, teeing off in the first stroke play qualifying round at Prestwick on Tuesday morning is Ayrshire-born and bred Connie Jaffrey (Troon Ladies) who finished second to England's Annabel Dimmock in the Helen Holm Scottish women's amateur stroke play at Troon last month.
Connie had a stellar year in 2013 when she won the Ayrshire county title, the Paul Lawrie Scottish schoolgirls championship and the Scottish U18 girls championship.
As one SLGA official, who shall remain nameless. said on the eve of the event: "Eilidh Briggs versus Connie Jaffrey would be a terrific final on Saturday."
She can say that again. They could probably sell admission tickets, standing-room only if that were how things workd out this week.
But golf - and possibly more so in girls/women's golf for some reason - things don't always work out the way they should.
Only 12 months ago in the championship hosted by Longniddry Golf Club, leading qualifier Jess Meek (Carnoustie Ladies) was beaten in the second round and No 2 seed Rachel Walker (Dumfries and Co) lost in the first round of the match-play.
Alyson McKechin (Elderslie) beat teenager Clara Young (North Berwick) in a downpour for last year's final.
Alyson is here again this week, keeping her plans to turn professional very close to her chest.
"I don't know if this will be may last Scottish ladies championship. This will be a decision I will make when the time is correct and aligned to my plans," she said.
"My big incentive this week is to follow the example of Anne Laing who was the last player to win this title two years in a row and she won for the second time here at Prestwick!"
Anne Laing, incidentally, is at Prestwick to play solely in the past champions' event staged in conjunction with the stroke play qualifying rounds. She will not take part in the championship proper.
Eilidh Briggs has been Scottish U18 girls champion but has yet to win the women's championship. She reached the final at Machrihanish in 2011.
"I'm looking forward to a good week with a good field and a traditional links course. Just hope the weather is kind
to us," said Stirling PE student Eilidh. "With regards to the Curtis Cup, I'm very excited about going over to the States for what will be an unbelievable experience."
Eilidh's big sister, Megan, won the "Scottish" at Southerness in 2009 and is also in the Prestwick field.
It was the youngest player in the field who won the very first Scottish women's amateur championship over the
Old Course, St Andrews in 1903 - 19-year-old Alexa Glover.
Could the 100th staging also be won by the youngest in the Prestwick field?
Not such a long stretch of coincidence for 14-year-old Shannon McWilliam (Aboyne), pictured left by Cal Carson Golf Agency, won the Scottish Under-14 girls title last year and only a few weeks ago became the youngest ever winner of the Aberdeenshire women's county championship.
Another leading Aberdeenshire contender should be Rachel Polson (Peterculter), just home from Florida Tech University. She lost to Clara Young in last year's semi-finals at Longniddry.
If you believe in pointers to players who are going to have a good run, put your money on Rachel. Last year she played badly in the Peterculter women's open immediately prior to the "Scottish" but then rose to the occasion in the national championship the following week.
Last weekend Polson again had, by her standards, a poor performance in the Peterculter event. History about to repeat itself?
Northern Counties will be hoping their new champion Alison Bartlett (Royal Dornoch), a senior international player, carries on where she left off in their recent county championship. Alison is also the Northern Counties secretary. It takes a bit of organising to run a competition, play in it - and win it, as Mrs Bartlett did.
From Angus the standard bearers should be Jess Meek, back home after her first year at the University of Missouri, St Andrews student Ailsa Summers and Heather Munro, one of a clutch of bright young Scottish prospects who will be enrolling at US colleges in August.
From Fyfe, expect US-bound Lauren Whyte to do well and Clara Young to keep the Lothians well to the fore.
The 32 leading players after the 36-hole stroke-playing opening to the championship will go into match-play on Thursday morning. The next 16 will contest the Clark Rosebowl match-play competition

CONNIE JAFFREY IS RUNNER UP AT THE HELEN HOLM

| Connie Jaffrey --(Photo Courtesy of the SLGA) |
English teenager Annabel Dimmock shot a final round 73 and scored a start to finish victory with an 11 under par 214 total in the Helen Holm Scottish Open Strokeplay Championship at Troon.
Connie Jaffrey, the Scottish Girls’ Champion and a Troon Ladies’ member, was also in impressive from, closing with a 71 to finish in outright second place and three shots behind on eight under par 217.
Five ahead after rounds of 70 and 71 over Troon Portland, Dimmock, a 17-year-old from Wentworth, had increased her lead to six by the time she reached the turn in two under par 35 in the final round over over the famous Royal Troon.
She then dropped shots at tenth and the long 11th to give Jaffrey a glint of hope. But more birdies at the 12th and 15th helped seal the victory.
Connie Jaffrey, also 17, was delighted with her runner-up finish. “That was my best ever round over Royal Troon and I played really steady today,” she said after her six birdie round. “I went out thinking I had a chance to win and I got close. This rates as the best result of my career.”
Jaffrey will be playing in the Scottish Ladies’ Amateur Championship at Prestwick next month and will then defend the Scottish Girls’ Championship at Dumfries and County in May before heading to the US and a golf scholarship at Kansas State University.

WEST OF SCOTLAND'S CONNIE JAFFREY IS STILL IN THE HUNT AT THE HELEN HOLM AFTER ROUND 2
FROM THE SLGA WEBSITE ---
England’s 17-year-old Annabel Dimmock showed her desire to clinch a place in GB and Ireland’s Curtis Cup team by taking a five shot lead with a round to play in the Helen Holm Scottish Open Strokeplay Championship at Troon.
But Connie Jaffrey made sure that there will be plenty local interest in Sunday’s final round over Troon’s Old Course as she birdied the long 18th over Troon Portland to stand in a tie for second place.
The reigning Scottish Girls’ Champion and a Troon Ladies’ member, Connie Jaffrey had three birdies and an eagle at the long ninth in a 72 to finish on four under par 146.
Dimmock was a one shot leader after an opening 70 and the Wentworth teenager added a second day 71 that was a real mixed bag with six birdies, four bogeys and the highlight of an eagle three at the long sixth.
On nine under par 141, Dimmock led by the handful of strokes from Jaffrey and France’s 19-year-old Anaelle Carnet, who had an eagle at the ninth in a second round one under par 74.
Lauren Whyte, the 2012 Scottish Girls’ Champion, bolstered the home challenge by taking a share of fourth place on three under par 147. The St Andrews youngster had a level par 75.
Elderslie’s Alyson McKechin, the Scottish Amateur Champion, finished second last year and was tied for third and alongside Whyte on 72 after the opening day. But she sipped back into a tie for tenth on one under par after a 77. Grantown-On-Spey’s Hannah McCook was on the same mark following a 74.
For all the Scots, the aim is to become the first home winner since Heather Stirling in 2002. For Dimmock, it is a place in the GB and Ireland team to defend the Curtis Cup at St Louis Country Club in June that is the added incentive.

HELEN HOLM SCOTTISH WOMEN'S OPEN AMATEUR STROKE PLAY CHAMPIONSHIP
CLICK HERE for Live Scoring
From the SLGA Website
MCKECHIN AND WHYTE HEAD HOME CHALLENGE
England’s fast rising star Annabel Dimmock led the way with a first round five under par 70 while Scot Alyson McKechin again showed her liking for the Helen Holm Scottish Open Strokeplay Championship at Troon Portland.
Elderslie’s Alyson McKechin, the Scottish Amateur Champion, finished second last year and a flawless opening three under par 72 put her in a four way share of third place that also included another Scot, Lauren Whyte.
Connie Jaffrey, the reigning Scottish Girls' Champion and Troon Ladies' Club member, was the third Scot under par on 74.
Renfrewshire’s Alyson McKechin birdied the long sixth and 15th and then completed the hat-trick with a three at the 17th.
Whyte, the 2012 Scottish Girls’ Champion from St Regulus, had three birdies and then saved her best for last with an eagle three at the closing hole.
Dimmock made her move with three birdies in a row from the turn. Winner of the Jones Doherty Challenge Cup in Florida earlier this year – Scot Kelsey MacDonald was her caddie – the Wentworth teenager had seven birdies to take a one shot lead over Delamere Forest’s Gemma Clews.
Dimmock was a member of last year’s English Girls’ and Senior Home International teams and if she can continue the form over the next two days she must have pusher herself into the sights of the Curtis Cup selectors.
After another round over Troon Portland, the top 66 players and ties qualify for Sunday’s final round over the Old Course, Troon.

KILMACOLM'S EILIDH BRIGGS WINS THE RENFREWSHIRE LADIES COUNTY CHAMPIONSHIP FOR THE 3RD TIME
 |
| Eilidh is presented with the championship Trophy by Captain Gillian -- Photo Courtesy of Maureen Woodhead |
Eilidh, the top seed and a Stirling University P.E. student, beat Iona Stephen (Country member of Ranfurly Castle) who plays off two and is now a member at Wentworth, by 6 and 4 with a sub-par performance.
Eilidh was out in 34 to her opponent's 39, was four up at the turn, having birdied the fourth, fifth and eighth. She also won the nine with a par.
She then won the 12th and 13th and then finished the match with a birdie 2 at the 14th for a 6 and 4 victory.
A result, particularly the margin of it, must have been a disappointment for Iona who had played some very good golf herself over the three days but she was simply outgunned in the final.
Iona did take home one cup - the Peggy Clark Trophy for the best net score on the qualifying day.

In the morning semi-finals, Eildh produced five birdies in beating Greenburn's Liz Stewart 3 and 2
Liz had two birdies of her own and was all square on the 14th tee before Eilidh's birdies at the 14th and 16th finished off a very good match.
In the other semi-final, Donna Jackson (Cochrane Castle), county champion a record 11 times, lost by one hole to Iona Stephen who had three birdies in an outward 36 to her opponent's 39.Donna had birdies at the 10th and 17th to be only one down playing the 18th. Both players parred the hole, leaving Iona, the one-hole winner and a county finalist for the first time.
RESULTS
Semi-finals - Eilidh Briggs (Kilmacolm) beat Liz Stewart (Greenburn) 3 and 2
Iona Stephen (Wentworth) beat Donna Jackson (Cochrane Castle) 1 hole.
Iona Stephen (Wentworth) beat Donna Jackson (Cochrane Castle) 1 hole.
