SCRATCH LEAGUE RESULT

The AGM and Dinner for the P&K Scratch League took place at Dunkeld and Birnam Golf . Gwen Lambie chaired the meeting and announced that Dunkeld and Birnam were withdrawing from the league. We are all very sorry that they are no longer included in the league and will all miss our visits to their beautiful course. Muckhart however are taking their place and their inclusion was warmly welcomed.

The winners of this years Scratch League was Strathmore Golf Club who were undefeated throughout the season. Above is some of the members of the team accepting the trophy for the second year running.

A beautiful meal followed and a vote of thanks was given to Gwen for all her hard work and for keeping us all up to date with the results by emailing me on a very regular basis.

KIRSTY BRODIE WINS JUNIOR MASTERS

The five-star Gleneagles resort, hosts the Ryder Cup in 2014, was the venue for the Highland Spring Junior Masters yesterday and our own Kirsty Brodie (Strathmore) eased to a three-point success in the girls section over the delightful Queen’s Course.  Kirsty was the class act among the girls, posting an impressive 40 stableford points off her 13 handicap to secure a comfortable triumph. Jemma Brown (St Regulus) claimed second spot on 37 points with Alexandra Mennie of Eile & Earlsferry Ladies a point further behind in third.

Baring in mind Kirsty is only 11 years old, her potential has already been recognised by officials of the SLGA where she has been selected as the youngest member for the Scottish Golf Academy. A fantastic result for such a enthusiastic young golfer. She certainly is one to watch.

Kirsty and brother Michael almost made a family first as 14 year old brother was leading the boys section right up to the last group of players and was just pipped at the post to second place.

Above is the official winners photograph courtesy of Colin Farquarson and below is a photo of Kirsty from my library!

Brown Memorial Trophy

Everyone enjoyed a fantastic day at Callander, weather was beautiful and the golf was excellent.

Results of the Greensomes:

Handicap: 1st - Liz Milligan & Myra MacLeod (Dunblane New) 68.4
2nd - Liz Fertacz & Sandy Bushby (Blairgowrie) 71.4
3rd - Miriam Wilson & Maggie Davidson (Dunblane New) 71.6

Scratch: 1st Liz Fertacz & Sandy Bushby 82

Golf Ball Winners: Alison Houston (Milnathort), Landie Pattinson (Pitlochry), Moira Chapman (King James VI).

Many thanks to Callander Golf Club and to Pat and Miriam for convening our last meeting of the season.

Apologies to everyone who played at Callander I did put the results on the website immediately after the competition but was in Dumfries on the eve of the County Finals and somehow managed to put them on the Junior site instead of the main one.
Hopefully this will be my last boob!!

See you all at the AGM. Lenore.

Junior Texas Scramble

Unfortunately the proposed Texas Scramble and Prize Giving arranged for Sunday 2nd October at Strathmore has had to be cancelled due to lack of support.

This season the junior events have not had as much support as in previous years, a combination of weather, exams and holiday has made it difficult.

Carol and her team put a huge amount of time and effort organising these events and it is very dissapointing when girls do not respond to invitations to play or worse still, say they are coming and then just don't turn up.

I would like to say a very big thank you to Carol for all her efforts to encourage junior golf in the county, we do have a core of very dedicated and entheusiastic girls who come along to everything and thes girls make Corol's work worth while.

Champion of Champions 2011

There was an excellent entry for the final event of the County season the Champion of Champions, 23 out of 29 clubs in the county were represented by their Club Champions.

The weather at Gleneagles was not too bad staying dry until near the end of play. The Queen's Course was in good condition considering the wet conditions we have experienced throughout the summer.

Many congratulations to Laura Walker who succeeded in defending her title with a great score of 76!

Results:
1st Laura Walker (Muckhart) 76
2nd Jane Yellowlees (Murrayshall) 80
3rd Emily Aird (Strathmore) 81
4th Jill Milne (Craigie Hill) 82

Jane Yellowlees took the best net score with a better inward half from Laura.

The CSS on the day was R/O.

Very many thanks to Gleneagles for the courtesy of the course.
Congratulations to all the Champions who took part especially the winners.

P&K COUPLE 2ND PLACE AT COMMONWEALTH SPOONS

P&K pair Dawn Butchart and Emily Ogilvy returned an excellent scratch 77 at Forres Golf Club today at the SLGA Commonwealth Spoons. With only a 3.5 handicap they returned a nett 73.5 and were just pipped for the top spot by 0.5 of a stroke. Emily and Dawn had the best scratch score by 4 shots!

Well done to both players. Below is the SLGA photo of the prizewinners.
