Renfrew Golf Club Tri Am Success

Winning Team — Megan and Lynn McColl, Karen McIlvaney (Hilton Park not pictured)

Another very successful Ladies Open Tri-am took place yesterday at Renfrew Golf Club in largely dry and sunny conditions. A field of 37 teams took part in a bid to win the Burgoyne Thistle Trophy and the 'on course' prizes. 

As well as the opportunity to win some fantastic raffle prizes- the local Renfrew Branch of Enable Scotland Charity will be the beneficiaries of the proceeds - there was an extensive selection of ladies golf clothing, gifts and accessories offered for sale by Sarah and Tom Eckford. Never has the Committee Room looked so pretty ๐Ÿ˜œ

A selection of photographs from the event are included in the album on the Renfrew Facebook Page and quite unusually the vast majority of the prize-winners stayed or in the case of the winners, came back for the presentation of prizes that was undertaken by Alice Burgoyne.

The competition was based on the best nett score at each hole but in the last three holes all three players nett scores counted and were added in.

Many congratulations to the winners of the Trophy, who only entered the day before the competition; 

Lynn and Megan McColl (The Carrick) and Karen McIlvaney (Hilton Park) with a score of 96

They also won the separate 16th, 17th and 18th combined score competition and many  thanks to Tom and Sarah Eckford for donating these prizes.

Other Prize Winners;

SECOND PRIZE: Ann Shanks, Margaret Nicolson and Ronalda Agnew (all Dumbarton) 97
THIRD PRIZE: Irene McInnes (Williamwood), Brenda Conway (Renfrew) and Moira Kerr (Cowglen) 98
FOURTH PRIZE: Jane Pirie, Kathryn McPhail and Rhonda Hughes (all Millport) 99 BIH

Hannah Darling in fourth place after 1st round at Panmure

Lucie Malchirand got off to a flying start in the 91st staging of the British Girls' Amateur Championship at Panmure, near Carnoustie  today with a seven-under-par round of 64 to take a two-shot lead after the first round of stroke-play qualifying.
The 16-year-old from France turned in three-under and went on to notch eagles on the par-five 10th and 14th holes on her way to setting a new women’s course record at the renowned Angus links.

Malchirand, who is second in the Junior Solheim Cup rankings and has two wins already this year, said, “I’m feeling really good. It was the first day and it is a bit stressful but I’m really happy to shoot seven-under today.
"The course was really nice and I didn’t have any rain. I haven’t played well in my previous tournaments on links courses and this is the first time I have shot seven-under on a links course.”
Conditions varied throughout the day with periods of gusting winds, squally showers and calmer sunnier conditions. Scoring was strong among some of the later starters with Alessia Nobilio of Italy carding a five-under-par 66. Nobilio, the highest-ranked player in the field at sixth in the World Amateur Golf Ranking, made her move on the front nine with four consecutive birdies from the 5th and parred her way in.
Pia Babnik, who won the Helen Holm Scottish Women’s Championship earlier this year, is one shot further back after a four-under-par 67.


Hannah Darling leads home hopes
Scotland’s Hannah Darling, who won The R and A’s inaugural Girls Under-16 Amateur last year and the Scottish Girls Open Championship this year, sits fourth after a two-under-par 69.
Annabell Fuller from Roehampton is on one-under-par, a shot ahead of compatriot Euphemie Rhodes from Burnham and Berrow who is on the same mark as Isabella Holpfer from Austria, Katri Bakker from Finland, Christin Eisenbeiss from Germany and Sweden’s Louise Rydqvist.
Former champions Emilie Paltrieneri and Lily May Humphries struggled with rounds of three-over-par 74 and seven-over-par 78 respectively.

Players from as far afield as Australia, Canada, South Africa and the United States of America are competing with a strong contingent from Great Britain and Ireland and mainland Europe as the championship, founded in 1919, celebrates its centenary year.
Following tomorrow’s second round of stroke-play qualifying the leading 64 players and ties will progress to the match-play stage at the Angus venue. Each match will consist of one round of 18 holes including Saturday’s final. 
The winner will receive exemptions into the 2020 Women Amateur Championship at Kilmarnock (Barassie) and the Augusta National Women’s Amateur Championship.
Admission and parking are free of charge for spectators visiting Panmure.

GRACE CRAWFORD WINS THE SCOTTISH GIRLS’ U14 CHAMPIONSHIP

Grace Crawford is your new Scottish Girls’ U14 Champion winning the first playoff hole with an eagle 3

Sofia Barroso Sรก and Grace Crawford were today crowned the winners at the Scottish Girls’ U16 & U14 Open Championship at Elgin Golf Club today. 

In the U14 section, it was Scot Grace Crawford from Gullane Golf Club who came out on top after a playoff with Kasumi Tran of Wales.
Crawford, who was part of the Scotland Girls’ Home International team just last week, reached the turn in three-under, level par overall, to close the overnight deficit and reach the top of the leaderboard going into the final nine.
After five straight pars to start the back-nine, Crawford took a two-shot lead into the final three holes over her playing partner Tran.
However, Tran birdied 16 and 17 to take a one-shot lead going down 18 but Crawford bounced back from a bogey at 16, birdieing the par-5 18th to force a playoff.
The players headed back down the 1st and it was Crawford who secured the victory with a stunning eagle three.
Speaking to Scottish Golf after picking up the U14 trophy, Crawford said, “I’m very excited to win. Coming down 18 I was just thinking make birdie and see what happens.
“When it’s a playoff it’s whoever wins, wins and thankfully this time it was me.
“Over the two days, I felt I played very well. I really like this course and I thought I played really solid, especially today.”View all of the final scores from the Scottish Girls’ U16 & U14 Championship at Elgin here.

Eilidh Henderson (Loretto School Golf Club ) was the leading Scot in the Under 16's and Natalia Fowler (Bathgate) leading net in the U16's

The event was celebrating their 40th Anniversary set up by Colin Robertson who joined everyone back in the clubhouse after the games were finished.

There was much hilarity and fun inside the clubhouse with many families and children joining in and not too many being disappointed the "bouncy castle" was unable to be used !

Megan Docherty is leading Scot in rain delayed U16 Scottish Girls Open Championship

From the Scottish Golf Website

After a three and a half hour delay due to the overnight and early morning rain, play was eventually able to get underway at 11.00am.
In the U16 event, it was Austria’s Anna Neumayer and England’s Leonie Muir who finished the day at the top of the leaderboard after level-par opening rounds of 74.
Neumayer’s opening round included four birdies and four bogeys while Muir carded five birdies alongside three bogeys and a double.
The pair will now take a one-shot lead into tomorrow’s final round.
Portugal’s Sofia Barroso Sa sits one shot back of the leaders on one-over par, largely thanks to a fantastic bogey-free back-nine with eight pars and a closing birdie at 18th.
The top-Scot in the U16 event is Bishopbriggs’ Megan Docherty who posted a two-over par round of 76 and will go into tomorrow’s final round just two shots back from the lead.
Speaking to Scottish Golf after her round, Docherty said, “I’m pretty happy with today’s round, I played well and holed some nice putts. We were lucky with the weather after this morning’s delay and only got caught in one shower which was good.
Looking ahead to tomorrow, Docherty said, “It’s a nice position to be in. I’m just going to stay calm and try to play well and see what happens.”
In the U14 event, it was France’s Juliette Demeaux who posted the round of the day with an excellent one-under par 73.
Demeaux’s round included three birdies and two bogeys, and she will now take a two-shot lead into tomorrow’s final round.
Speaking to Scottish Golf after her round, Demeaux said, “It feels very good. I was confident as I wanted to play well in Scotland.
“I’m feeling confident. I played well today without attacking too much and that will be the plan again tomorrow, just trying to keep making pars.”
Demeaux’s nearest competitor going into the final round will be Kasumi Tran from Wales who’s round of one-over par has her sitting in second place.
Top Scot in the U14 event after Day 1 is Gullane’s Grace Crawford. Fresh off of competing in last week’s Home Internationals, Crawford made a costly double-bogey at 17 before bouncing back with a birdie on 18 to leave herself just four shots behind the overnight lead.

Mi Jung Hur claims Aberdeen Standard Investments Ladies Scottish Open crown


From the  Ladies European Tour Website 

Mi Jung Hur fired a five-under-par 66 – the joint lowest round of the day – in wet conditions to earn a four-stroke victory in the Aberdeen Standard Investments Ladies Scottish Open at The Renaissance Club.
The 29-year-old South Korean, who led by two at the halfway stage of the tournament after a nine-under-par 62, came from a stroke back entering the final round to win on 20-under-par.
Despite having set the tournament scoring record after two rounds, and having earned a runner-up finish in the event at Dundonald two years ago, she revealed that she had never previously been a fan of links golf.
“Actually, I don’t like links courses, but after this week, I love them,” said Hur, whose neon yellow waterproofs were decorated with the slogan “Win at all costs.”
Hur claimed her first LPGA Tour victory as a rookie in 2009 and then another five years ago in 2014. Five years had passed since her last title and this was her first victory as a married woman, after her wedding last year. She thanked her Scottish caddie, Gary Marshall, for helping to keep her clubs and balls dry and for encouragement throughout the severe and changeable conditions over the four days.
“On the first day, I made a birdie and then two bogeys. Then he told me on the fourth hole, come on MJ, you can win this. He said that again today again on the fourth tee after I’d just made a three-putt, so that helped a lot.”
Hur began her final round with a bogey on the third hole and trailed after eight holes, but made her first birdie of the day on the par-3 ninth, sinking a putt from six feet, to enter a four-way tie for the lead.
After making her fourth straight birdie putt, from around nine yards, on the par-5 12th hole, the Texas-based professional felt that she could win the tournament.
She made another great putt from five feet on the 16th to take a three stroke advantage and then polished off the round with her sixth birdie of the day on 18.
The US Women’s Open champion Jeongeun Lee6 (70) and third-round leader Moriya Jutanugarn (71) tied for second position on 16-under, with the 2017 champion Mi Hyang Lee a stroke back in fourth place and the 2018 winner Ariya Jutanugarn two shots further adrift in fifth.

With a tie for sixth, alongside Minjee Lee and Elizabeth Szokol, Anne Van Dam moved up to second on the LET Solheim Cup points list, while Carly Booth tied for ninth and won the Douglas Lowe Memorial Trophy as the top performing Scot in the tournament, after a final round of level par 71.

After a disastrous 3rd round yesterday Kylie Hendry equalled the best score of the day by firing a 5 under par 66. It was the turn of Pamela Pretswell Asher to have the bad round today

Following on from Solheim Cup Sunday, the excitement continues with the announcement of the full European Solheim Cup team tomorrow.

MORIYA JUTANUGARN TAKES ONE STROKE LEAD INTO FINAL ROUND IN SCOTLAND
The Aberdeen Standard Investments Ladies Scottish Open trophy may have the name Jutanugarn engraved on it for the second straight year. 
2018 champion Ariya Jutanugarn’s older sister, Moriya, fired a 4-under par 67 on Saturday in North Berwick, Scotland to take a one-stroke lead into the final round over Jeongeun Lee6 and Mi Jung Hur.


Carly Booth, the 2012 champion at Archerfield Links, delivered one of her best rounds of the year, a bogey-free five-under-par 66, to climb into joint fifth position, six strokes behind the leader.

Carly Booth leading Scot at Ladies Scottish Open as Dame Laura has a Hole in One


Dame Laura Davies made a hole-in-one at the 152-yard fifth using a pitching wedge in the second round of the Aberdeen Standard Investments Ladies Scottish Open at The Renaissance Club this morning and signed for an incredible three-under-par 68, just before play was suspended due to unplayable conditions at 13.04.
Davies said it was the second best round of her 34-year career, due to the ‘horrific’ conditions, with heavy rain and strong winds, gusting at 35 miles per hour.
Davies said it was her best round since the 1996 Canadian Open, which she won on a tree-lined course in a gale.
When play was suspended, the European Solheim Cup vice-captain tied for 27th position on a 36 hole total of two-under-par, two strokes behind the clubhouse leader, Hyo Joo Kim, with Sarah Schmelzel and Caroline Hedwall having finished on three-under-par. Linda Wessberg also shot a three-under-par 68 this morning for the joint lowest round of the day so far. She was tied for 57th on par and just inside the cut line when play was suspended.
The first round leaders Mi Hyang Lee and Anne Van Dam had only just teed off, while joint overnight leader Jane Park had yet to start.
After persistent rain all morning, a shard of light appeared through the clouds at around 2.30pm and conditions appeared to be drying up.
Play resumed at 3.25pm after a 2 hour, 21 minute delay and the weather completely changed for the afternoon side of the draw.
Play was yet again suspended later in the day with Mi Jung Hur (Korea) completing her second round of 62 to be in the lead at 14 under par.

SCOTTISH PLAYERS
Carly Booth managed to complete her round and was the leading scot in the Clubhouse on 5 under par.
Kylie Henry is currently on 4 under after 15 holes followed by Pamela Pretswell Asher on 2 under after 14 holes.
The projected cut is level par and Gemma Dryburgh has finished on +1. Michele Thomson is also on +1 after 16 holes.
Kelsey MacDonald and Catriona Matthew will both have missed the cut.

Scots have mixed fortunes against Wales and England wins both the Women's and Girl's Home Internationals



English Girls and Women's Teams
R and A News Release.

England has won both the R and A Women’s and Girls’ Home Internationals after the rain-affected final day of the round-robin competitions  were played at Downfield Golf Club, Dundee.
England and Ireland came into third and final day having beaten both Scotland and Wales over the first two days of competition, leading to a title shoot-out between the two sides in both events. 
With the weather causing havoc, it was a long and frustrating final day but it was England that ended it in celebratory mood edging the Irish out 3½ -2½ in the women’s event, while the junior side made it three title wins in a row on a count back after a 3-3 draw in the girls’ event.

With the dreadful forecast threatening to wipe out the whole day’s play, a decision was made to send the afternoon singles matches out first and then hopefully follow on with the foursomes. 
Six hours of play were eventually washed out and the outcome of the final round of matches was decided on the results in the singles. 
In the women’s event, England took control by winning the top three matches through Isobel Wardle, Lily May Humphreys and Emily Toy. The doughty Irish hit back with wins from Jessica Ross and Lauren Walsh and it was all set for a last-match decider between Ellen Hume and Paula Grant. 

England’s Hume was one up with two holes to play but Grant kept the match alive with a great birdie at the 17th and the pair went down the 18th. A half in pars was good enough for an English victory

The girls’ contest was a real thriller with four of the six matches going to the 18th hole and England taking the title, thanks to a superior points total in individual matches (17½-15½). 

It was desperately disappointing for the Irish girls and captain Helen Jones. Last year at Ballybunion, the side also drew with England but eventually finished third overall. 
In the third and fourth play-offs, Scotland, the defending champions, beat Wales 4½-1½ to finish third. Wales gained revenge in the girls’ event with a 5-1 scoreline.
