Cancelled - Swanston Sunday 17th December

We have had to cancel the Junior Competition arranged at Swanston on Sunday 17th December

Thanks go to Swanston New Golf Club for allowing us to host the event on the Templar course and to the Stephen Gallacher Foundation for letting us use their "cabin" for checking in.

A HUGE thank you is also due to Yvonne Wilson who very kindly provided the main prizes and the goody bags for all the girls. Thanks also to Louise Fraser who provided cereal bars for the girls.

Match Players for 2018

In a change from previous years, Club Representatives were invited to invite players with a handicap between 5.0 and 6.5 who would be willing to join our representative teams in their 2018 preparation programme.  We have a busy schedule and players are sometimes unavailable due to work and other golf commitments so we struggle to get a full team at times. 
Many thanks to the following who have accepted the invitation

Julie Douglas                   Merchants GC
Debbie Hay-Smith           Murrayfield GC
Caroline Johnstone          Murrayfield GC
Hilary Laughland               Mortonhall GC
Susan Rennie                      Turnhouse GC
Sal Shepherd                       Craigmillar Park GC
Catherine Stewart             Mortonhall GC

Congratulations to Dee Williams and Karen Ferguson-Snedden on winning the Daily Mail Foursomes.  They met Worfield's Sally Weaver and Paulette Morris in the final and found themselves on the back foot only six holes from home.  Displaying typical Scottish fighting spirit they refused to accept defeat and dug their heels in.  Helped by a couple of mistakes by their opponents Karen and Dee took advantage of the errors and  came back to secure a win by one hole.

Well done, Ladies!

Junior Champion of Champions

Hannah Darling wins again!

Today at the Dukes, St Andrews added another Scottish trophy to give her a hat trick of wins She scored a 69 over the par 71 course to win by two shots from Jasmine Mackintosh, Hazlehead GC, Aberdeen.  Hannah only recorded one bogey in her game with 14 pars and 3 birdies.

Her trio of major wins are the Scottish Girls Amateur Championship, the Scottish U14 Girls Championship and the Junior Champion of Champions.

This year Hannah has represented Scotland in Oslo at the European Junior Masters and joined other young hopefuls at the hand over for the Solheim Cup in Iowa, USA.  She is hoping to get a place in the European Team at the Junior Solheim Cup at Gleneagles 2019.

  

 

Amateur Girls Championship, Scotscraig

Teeing off at the 1st at Glenbevie

Hannah also played in the MCLGA team at the Scottish County Finals last weekend where they narrowly missed out on that trophy.

Its been a busy and successful year!

Scottish County Finals

My apologies for the lack of updates for Day 2 and Day3.  The hotel we were staying at was having problems with wifi and there was little or no service at all.  I managed on Day 1 only because I had time at the golf course but that wasn't the case on the other two days.  I hope you managed to follow us on Scottish Golf website (for future use - Scottish Golf/Championship/ Women's County Finals).

Hopefully by now you will know that we were second, just losing out to Renfrewshire on count back.  The players were magnificent throughout the event - determined, supportive of each other, competitive - playing great golf.  They coped with extremely difficult greens that were reminiscent of the Ochil Hills on the horizon and fairways that had suffered from the third wettest summer since records began a hundred years ago.




Gabrielle MacDonald & Alison McBride

It was roller coaster of a tournament
Day 1:  We only managed a half in the foursomes against Renfrewshire so went into the afternoon on the back foot.  The players were great taking four points in the singles to finish with a draw.  Perth & Kinross and Dumfriesshire also had a draw to leave us in the same position as before the event started! 
Day 2:  The match against Dumfriesshire started well with three wins in the morning.  Going into the singles confidently it was real nail biter to finish with only 2 wins.  It was enough to give us two points for a win but left us half a point behind Renfrewshire who beat P & K 5.5 - 3.5.

Day 3:  We took the edge from the morning games with two wins and went into the afternoon just looking for three wins from six games or 3 points.  Our players played hard never giving up, competing very hard against Perth and Kinross to take three wins.  We fought hard but just couldn't get the final one point that would give us victory.  I did hope Dumfries might help us when their last three games against Renfrewshire were all square, all square and up - only for them to lose game 4 and 5!

To be second at the County Finals is a good result, particularly to be so close, and all credit to the players and officials involved in the event.  Thanks to Louise Fraser and Linda Wemyss for sharing with me  - a great team -  and President Norma for your continuous support.

LWemyss (Selector), K Marshall, L Fraser ( V Captain), J Burnett(Captain), R Livingstone, G MacDonald

Scottish County Finals

 15th  - 17th September, Glenbervie Golf Club.

The tournament started today with Dumfriesshire against Perth & Kinross and us against Renfrewshire.  The format is match play with the morning matches being three foursomes and the afternoon six singles.
Today was a bright, clear, sunny day and the views, across to the Ochil Hills, from the first tee were stunning.  Gabrielle MacDonald and Alison McBride led off against Megan Briggs and Carol Whyte, followed by Karen Marshall and Jennifer Bryans against Jennifer Rankine and Donna Jackson with the third match being Louise Fraser and Rachael Livingstone taking on Gillian Kyle and Liz Stewart.  Unfortunately the first and second pairs lost whilst Louise and Rachael secured a half to ensure we  went into lunch with a half point on the board.
Consequently

Karen Ferguson-Snedden  v      Megan Briggs        lost 3/1
Gabrielle MacDonald        v      Gillian Kyle           won 4/3
Hannah Darling                 v      Jennifer Rankine    won 1up
Alison McBride                 v      Donna Jackson       won 5/4
Karen Marshall                  v      Denise Cowan        won 4/3
Louise Fraser                     v      Carol Whyte           lost 2/1

Midlothian 4.5 - Renfrewshire 4.5

Special mentions for Karen Ferguson-Snedden for taking Megan to the 17th and for Hannah for coming back from two down to win on the 18th.

Dumfriesshire drew with Perth & Kinross so all teams start with equal points tomorrow.

Midlothian play Dumfriesshire tomorrow with the first tee time at 0900.  Come and support us.

Champion of Champions 2017

Congratulations to Louise Fraser (Kingsknowe GC)

MCLGA Champion of Champions 2017

At the Royal Burgess Golfing Society today Karen Marshall, Baberton GC, met Louise Fraser, Kingsknowe GC, in the final of the Champion of Champions.  This is an extremely prestigious and keenly contested competition for the lady champions of Midlothian golf clubs.  As previous winners and beaten finalists both players were familiar with the course and looked forward to the challenge again.  The course was in excellent condition with extremely fast greens and the weather for once was on our side!  The game promised to be a real 'ding dong' between these two stalwarts of the County team!

Louise immediately went into the lead but by the 3rd it was all square followed by Karen taking the lead at the 5th with a par.  Louise responded by winning the 6th then winning the 7th and 9th to be 2 up at the turn.  At the 10th Karen pulled Louise back to 1 up  and it  was up an down until the 14th when Karen was on the green in two whilst Louise took three after her drive landed behind a tree.  Louise sunk a very long putt (about 20 feet) to take the hole.  This proved to be a turning point in what was a very close game.  Throughout  Karen played excellent steady golf coming to terms with the speed of the greens fairly quickly whilst Louise found bunker after bunker interspersed with trees only to play fantastic recovery shots.

Going up the 17th supporters were beginning to consider the 19th!  Karen found the green with an exceptionally long second shot whereas Louise left herself short.  Advised by her caddy, Elaine Lumsden that she needed to leave herself with a single putt, Louise promptly went one better and holed with her chip!!

Many thanks to Norma Richmond, President, for introducing the players and starting the match and to Sheila Stuart for refereeing.
