P&K COUNTY GIRLS' PLAY IN KINGSBARNS GIRLS' CLASSIC

Two of our P&K County Junior Girls had fantastic time at the 2022 Kingsbarns Girls Classic today.

Lauryn, Sherri & Zoe at Kingsbarns

Zoe Davidson (Alyth) and Lauryn Henry (Milnathort) represented P&K Ladies' County Golf Association in the annual Kingsbarns Girls Classic.

They played alongside Sherri Underwood, secretary of St. Andrews Ladies' Putting Club. Although they weren’t in the prizes they all had a great time and played really well on the spectacular Kingsbarns, finishing 8-under-par in the texas scramble.

Thanks to Kingsbarns for their exceptional hospitality, Scottish Golf for organising the event and finally to Sherri for her time and enthusiasm.

Congratulation to Lara Douglas and Megan Fallon, who along with Scottish Professional Louise Duncan won the Team event.

The Kingsbarns Girls Classic was first played in 2018 as part of the legacy from the 2017 British Women's Open, which was played at Kingsbarns.

Each County in Scotland is invited by Scottish Golf to select two County girls to take part. Each County pair is joined by a Scottish female PGA Professional or Scotland Squad member. The format is a Texas Scramble.

P&K COUNTY TEAM WIN AGAINST KARYN DALLAS SQUAD

The first nine-holes were played as foursomes and the back nine as singles, all off scratch. P&K won by 7.5 to 4.5.

Steph Crolla, P&K Ladies' County Match Secretary, said:
"It was a fantastic match played in great spirit. The heavy rain on the front nine-holes, didn’t deter the teams and they were rewarded with sunshine on the back nine. We hope to have a re-match with Karyn’s development girls in March next year and involve some of our younger juniors."

ENGLAND WINS THE HOME INTERNATIONALS

England snatched victory from Ireland on the final day to win the first-ever combined Men & Women's R&A Home Internationals at Ballyliffin.

Men & Women's R&A Home Internationals
Having secured wins over Scotland and Wales on the first two days, Ireland and England headed into their match on the final day knowing it would be the title decider. With Ireland leading on game points the hosts just needed a draw, but England had other ideas.

Trailing 4-3 after the morning foursomes, England fought back to win six of the 14 singles, halving four more and losing just four to edge out the home side 11-10.

In the day’s other match, Wales edged out Scotland 11-10, a result which saw them finish third in the combined standings with Scotland ending the event without a victory.

Ireland’s women won the women’s competition with two points from three while England also won the men’s competition.

MUIRFIELD PRO-AM JOY FOR PERTHSHIRE PAIR

Perthshire pair Isla Johnston & Lauren Cameron enjoyed the experience of a lifetime by teeing up in the Pro-Am ahead of the AIG Women’s Open.

The Pitlochry duo earned their place by winning the 2021 R&A Coronation Foursomes Grand Final over the Eden Course in St Andrews last September.

One of the youngest ever pairings to have competed in the championship - Isla Johnston was only 14 years old and Lauren Cameron was 22 - they came out on top from 16 teams in the Grand Final. Their prize also included a dream place in the Pro-Am at Muirfield ahead of the AIG Women’s Open.

Boutier pairing
With the world’s leading women players competing over the famed East Lothian links for the first time this week, the young amateur duo were paired with French woman Celine Boutier for Tuesday’s 18 holes of action.

Boutier, 28, has ten professional wins to her name - including two on the LPGA Tour - and tied for fourth at the ANA Inspiration earlier this year as she chases a major success. She also won the Women’s Amateur Championship at Portstewart in 2015.

It was a wonderful experience for the Coronation Foursomes victors, watching Boutier close up and enjoying friendly chats on the fairways.

Cameron only returned to the sport in 2020, while Johnston, who is one of our County Juniors, has been playing at Pitlochry since the age of six.

After the Pro-am Lauren Cameron said:
“It was an incredible experience as we had never played at Muirfield. Even standing at the driving range and pointing at the players. It was nice to watch Celine’s swing and see how she reads the greens. It was amazing to see someone that good and play next to them.”

Isla Johnston added:
“You are so close to the pros. It was kind of surreal. We had no idea our win would lead to this. It has topped our expectations.”

THE R&A WOMEN'S & MEN'S HOME INTERNATIONALS

Good luck to County Team members Jen Saxton & Megan Ashley who are playing for Scotland at the Home internationals this week.

The R&A Women’s and Men’s Home Internationals
