SCOTTISH UNDER 18's

Scottish U18 girls championship at Alyth
Fiona Liddell top seed for match-play
Germany-based Fiona Liddell, daughter of a Scottish-born club professional, has made an impressive start to her defence of the Scottish Under-18 girls' championship at Alyth Golf Club, Perthshire.
She had a bag of 11 birdies in rounds of 68 and 71 for five-under-par 139 to top the 16 qualifiers for the match-play stages.
But even Fiona found the inward half more difficult than the outwward nine. She had halves of 33-35 and 32-39 in her rounds.
But for bogeys at the 15th, 17th and 18th in her second round, Liddell would been the top seed by at least six shots.
In the end Chloe Goadby (St Regulus) claimed the second seeding with rounds of 69 and 3 for 142 - three behind Liddell.
GB and I Junior Vagliano Trophy team-mates Hazel MacGarvie (Troon Ladies) and Aboyne's Shannon McWilliam are third and fourth best qualifiers with totals of 143 (68-75) and 145 (73-72) respectively.
MacGarvie had an eagle 3 at the par-5 ninth in both her qualifying rounds.
McWilliam had five birdies over her last 11 holes.

LANARKSHIRE COUNTY CHAMPION LESLEY IS THE 2015 WEST VETS CHAMPION

Lesley Lloyd - 2015 West Vets Champion
Margaret Gray (Handicap Championship Winner)


The West Vets Championship and Stewart Trophy took place at Renfrew Golf Course over the last two days.
 Thursday was a very wet day and all players got a soaking. Some good golf was played nevertheless and some matches had to go to extra holes. The semi-finals and finals took place on Friday (yesterday) and apart from a strong wind and one or two showers, the sun shone most of the time. Lesley Lloyd (Hayston) --- Lanarkshire County Champion emerged the winner of the West Vets Championship in her first year with us and many congratulations go to Lesley. She deserves a rest this weekend after some of her matches had to go to extra holes - The semi final against Renfrewshire County Champion Gillian Kyle going to the 21st Hole !

Margaret Gray (Old Ranfurly) was a worthy winner of the Stewart Trophy in its first year and congratulations go to her as well. Golf is a serious game but there is always the amusing moments. Lynn McColl was bemoaning the fact that she lost three Titleist Pro V1 balls on the course during her semi-final against Margaret but Morag Key lost one ball in a ballwasher! Now, can anyone beat that? We also encountered a little grey squirrel at the 4th hole who managed to get into Marion Stewart's golf bag in the morning round and Margaret Gray's golf bag in the afternoon round. Sorry to say that neither keep any goodies for little squirrels in their bags!

Lesley immediately squared the match by winning the 10th while Fiona again went one up at the 11th but Lesley won the 12th. 
The 13th was halved. Fiona won the 14th and remained one  up through 17. Lesley won the long par 5 18th  to square the match and then won the first extra hole when Fiona found a bunker with her second shot and failed to get up and down.
Both played well and scored two over par for the 18 holes.

In the morning's semi-finals Lloyd bt the 2008 champion, Susan Wood (Drumpellier) by 2 and 1.
Norris, five times county champion since 1992 (when she was Fiona McKay), bt Janice Paterson (Drumpellier) 4 and 2 in the other semi-final.
