Eilidh Briggs Wins the Tom Lehman Trophy
Recently Eilidh Briggs (Kilmacolm) won the Tom Lehman trophy played over Troon Lochgreen Golf Course. Eilidh scored a 77 against the CSS of 74. This result is one better than last year when Eilidh won the best nett prize. This trophy already has the name of Briggs on it with Megan having lifted the trophy 3 times. As Eilidh is only 13, the name Briggs could be on this trophy for several years to come.
The photo shows Eilidh with other prize winners and South Ayrshire Council's Provost, Winifred Sloan.
