WELL DONE P&K

Today was the first match for our wonderful P&K Team and Junior squad and I am delighted to say that we had a brilliant over-all win of 4&2. Our senior teams result was 3&1 and the juniors 1 win each.

The pairings for P&K were:
Senior Team
Emily Ogilvy & Fiona Ramsay
Laura Walker & Eve Muirhead
Laura Campbell & Jillian Milne
Jane Yellowlees and Megan Aird.

Junior Team
Nicola Robertson & Eildh Watson
Emily Aird & Hannah Robb

Emily and Fiona were first off and up against Stirling and Clackmannan Captain Linda Allan and her partner Louise MacGregor. Both pairings played well and had a very close and tense match which ended at the 18th with the our girls 2 up. Laura and Eve were second up against Vicki Stevenson and Tricia Chillas. Eve and Laura managed to close out the game early with the best win of the day for the seniors with a 4&3 2win! Next up were Laura Campbell and Jillian Milne who were up against Claire Capucci and Karen Burns who played extremely well and our girls went down 5&4. The last senior pairing was Yellowless and Megan Aird. Megan, a junior member, who was drafted into the senior squad at the last minute following a cancellation, really did not let the occasion get to her when she slotted in two 4 foot putts in the last two holes to place Jane and Megan 2 holes up a the end of play. Well to both.

The junior pairings also were superb. Emily Aird teamed with a new player to our County Events, Hannah Robb, and both players really did us proud. They played extremely well however lost to an excellent Stirling pairing 3&2. The other P&K junior pairing of Nicola and Elidh were awesome. I caught up with them at the seven and they were 7 up and only 2 over par! I then caught up with them thru 9 and again they were 9 up! They went on to win the match with phenomenal 9&8. WOW!

Therefore the overall winners on the day were P&K 4&2. Well done to all our players and what a great start to what I hope will be a fantastic year once again for Perth and Kinross!
