Ayrshire Team - Photo Courtesy of Fiona Armour


Ayrshire and Lanarkshire had a great final match against each other today to decide who would go forward to the County Finals at Peebles at the end of August. 


Susan Woodhouse and Susan Wood

Lanarkshire took hold of the morning foursomes by winning 2 and 1 by virtue of the final game where the Lanarkshire pairing of Susan Wood and Susan Woodhouse were in top form with birdies and eagles to defeat Ayrshire's Louise Duncan and Hazel MacGarvie.

However in the afternoon singles Ayrshire's exceedingly strong team produced some fantastic golf to eventually come through all the weeks matches undefeated.

In the other match Renfrewshire and D&A had a very close match with the foursomes and the singles matches being halved.

At the prize giving at the end of the day Ayrshire's Captain Liz Wilson announced that the 2020 Jamboree will be hosted by D&A at Cardross GC
