CONGRATULATIONS TEAM!

Our county team played against the County men last night at Blairgowrie and won the match 3 to 1. This match was a great result and gives the girls great confidence ahead of the jamboree this weekend.

Full results are as follows, ladies first:

Jillian Milne & Jacqueline Sneddon won 1up against Glen Cambell & Scott Michie
Gwen Lambie & Jane Yellowlees won 1up against Nicky Barr & Danny Young
Eve Muirhead & Laura Campbell halved against Stuart Graham & Stuart McKendrick
Alex Bushby & Fiona Ramsay halved against George Brass & Phil Scott

Many thanks go to Blairgowrie for providing courtesy of the course and to P&K Gents especially Team Captain Ralph Taylor and our match secretary Shona Leighton for organising this match. Lets hope it will now be an annual event.  

EMILY RECORDS A 76

Congratulations to Emily Oglivy who returned a highly commendable 76, this result places Emily tied 24th. 

Included in Emily's score yesterday were two eagles. Emily told me one of her eagles was on a 490 yard par 5 where she hit driver, 6 iron and a single putt. When I asked how she played she commented that she really enjoyed her round even (as she puts it) she was three over.

Well done Emily, hope you have a great round today as well.

Unfortunately Roseanne did not fair as well and returned a 91, our best wishes go to her today.

GOOD LUCK EMILY AND ROSEANNE

Good luck wishes got to P&K players Emily Ogivly and Roseanne Niven who are taking part in the first qualifying round of the British Amateur Championship which has commenced at Ganton today. 144 players will battle for the 64 match play places. Two rounds of qualifying will take place today and tomorrow before the matchplay stages which begin on Thursday.

I will try to keep you updated on the results as they come in.

BAD LUCK NORTH

The inter-division girls team championship at Balumbie was a hard fought affair. Each team play each other in a round robin event. Each match is played in Foursome format.

 With all four teams going into the final day on 3 points it was all to play for. The first set of matches were South v West where West won 2-1. The final match was East v North and the North team (pictured above) who included two P&K Girls Eilidh Watson and Hannah Robb (far right), won 2-1. Incidentaly Eilidh and Hannah won all three of their matches. The final day of foursome matches led to a count back on holes won by and North were beaten by West on 20 - 9.

Below is the winning team being presented with the trophy. A great weekend of golf!

Girls Interdivisional Matches at Balumbie Golf Club

Two P&K girls were playing today in the team representing the Northern Division in Dundee, they were Hannah Robb from Strathmore and Eilidh Watson from Muckhart.

Hannah and Eilidh were paired together and the girls played really well winning both of their matches.

Today's Results:

Morning -

East v South, South won 2 matches to 1

West v North, North won 2 matches to 1

Afternoon -

East v West, West won 2 matches to 1

South v North, South won 2 matches too 1.

Points are equal right across the board so there is everything to play for tomorrow when North play East and South play West.

Good Luck North!

Northern Division Team

COMMONWEALTH SPOONS RESULTS

What a beautiful course St Fillans turned out to be, a real treat for first time visitors like myself. Throughly enjoyed the trip, the weather was also brilliant but not quite as sparkling as some of the  scores! Susan Ogg and Morag Brydson from Dunkeld and Birnam just pipped County Captain Lenore Kyle and her partner Carol Lambie by virtue of better inward half. Both returned fantastic net 70.5! Well done!

Four couples will make there way to the finals later in the year and the lucky four are:

Susan Ogg (Dunkeld & Birnam) & Morag Brydson (Dunkeld & Birnam) 70.5 (bih)
Lenore Kyle (Milnathort) & Carol Lambie (Dunkled & Birnam) 70.5
Joan Merry (Strathmore) & Kay Findlay (Strathmore) 71.5 (bih)
Christine Soutar (Muthill) & Grace Paterson (Dunblane) 71.5

Good Luck to you all.

Laura Walker returned an excellent 74 yesterday which along with her previous 80 brought her to 11th position and Jacqueline Sneddon returned a 79 on both days placing her in 21st place.
