CAPTAIN'S DAY AT CRIEFF

We had a really good turn out at Crieff for Captain's Day. The early starters got a bit wet but the rain cleared by mid morning and everyone had an enjoyable day.  Captain Carol set the scene well with chocolate for sustenance on the course and she also laid on special prizes for the day.

Our thanks to Iain Simpson and all the staff at Crieff who helped make it a successful day. Thanks also to all the ladies who supported the raffle which made £110 for the funds.

P&K JUNIOR IN THE SCOTTISH UNDER 18'S ANSLEY REID FINAL

P&K Junior, Megan Ashley (Strathmore) has played her way to the Final of the Scottish Under 18's Ansley Reid (Handicap Section) Trophy. Megan has played some amazing golf and will now play the number one seed Ailsa Brannock (Castle Douglas) this afternoon. Megan will be giving Ailsa 19 shots so it will be a tough game but if she continues in the manner she has played through out the week at Alyth golf club we may have a P&K player picking up the trophy.

Good Luck Megan

Two other P&K players made it to the knockout stages, Shannon Pook of Auchterarder who was drawn against Megan in the first round and Kirsty Brodie of Strathmore who qualified in the Scratch Championship who also lost out in the first round to Jillian Farrell.  Well done to all three players.

SCOTTISH GIRLS (CLOSE) AMATEUR CHAMPIONSHIP

Six P&K Girls will compete next week in the SLGA Scottish Girls (Close) Amateur Championship which will be held at Alyth Golf Club next week.

Two qualifying rounds will be played on Tuesday and the top 16 Scratch players will qualify for the Scratch Knockout stages followed by the remaining best 16 net scores for the Handicap Knockout stages.

We wish all P&K players well.

CONGRATULATION SUSAN OGG

Huge congratulations go to Susan Ogg who won the handicap Championship at Fortrose today. Susan held her nerve and clinched the title on the 19th hole.

Unfortunately it's wasn't to be a p&k double as Eilidh Watson lost her final to Kimberely Beveridge. 

Well done to both players and huge congratulations to Susan.
