P&K PLAYERS LOSE OUT

Nicola Robertson of Dunblane New played a great round of golf today but unfortunately narrowly lost out to her opponent Tara McTaggart 2&1. Nicola contacted me this evening and gave this short report  'I was 4 down after 12 holes then won the next 3 with 3 birdies. I then lost the 16th and halved the 17th to lose 2 and 1. I was 3 over par for the front nine and 2 under par for the back 8.'

Well done Nicola a wonderful display of golf and a great performance all round.

Hannah Robb who made it through to the 2nd flight also unfortunately lost out to her opponent Catherine Goodwin of Glenbervie 4&2.

Well done to both. You did us proud!

There is full results and round up of the days play at slga.co.uk.

The semi finals of the P&K Championships took place this afternoon at Strathmore golf Centre and the spectators certainly got a great mornings golf to watch. Both semi-finals went to the wire and were not decided until the 19th hole. Young Jennifer Saxton (Kinross) who this year entered year three of the Scottish Golf Academy showed experience beyond her years by winning her match against past champion Laura walker (Muckhart). In the other semi final Emily Ogilvy (Muckhart), after a year off from competitive golf, was back on form and beat past champion Jillian Milne (Craigie Hill) again on the 19th.

The final takes place at 2pm to which spectators are invited to come along and enjoy a great display of golf by both finalists.

The final of the Gibb Trophy also took place this morning and worthy finalists Helen Payne and Lesley Whitwood certainly did not disappoint the spectators with great golf being played by both. Our congratulations go to Lesley who was victorious with a margin of 3&2.
