COUNTY GIRLS - DRYSDALE & KARYN DALLAS TROPHIES

Congratulations to Kirsten Miller (Strathmore) who won the scratch prize at the P&K County Girls' meeting at Muckhart Golf Club today.


What a finish Kirsten had. She holed out from the fairway on the last to pip Lauren Pirie (Pitlochry) to the scratch trophy! There was some consolation for Lauren though as she won the handicap trophy. The runner up was Lauryn Henry (Milnathort).

Isla Johnston (Pitlochry) and Lucy Moran (Milnathort) played a very long nine holes at Muckhart shooting 57 and 63! 

Well done to all the girls!
