Blairgowrie Report

An enjoyable few days was enjoyed by all who were fortunate to be able to play at Blairgowrie this week. The weather was reasonable for this time of year and the courses were in excellent condition.

Sheena our Vice Captain and Champion for the Northern division teed off on Sunday afternoon in the Quarter Finals against Emma Stevenson (Highlands) and had a great win beating Emma 6&4. Sheena played par Golf which was great to see.
Unfortunately Sheena lost in the Semi-Finals against another experienced player Gillian Kyle (west) by 5&4. Sheena played well but couldn’t match the Birdies that Gillian kept throwing at her……..next time Sheena!

Congratulations also go to Michellle Finnie who got 4th place in the Patrick Rosebowl and to Kath Emeleus taking 5th place.

Also congratulations go to Fiona Gibb for winning the Past Presidents Quaich , Winner - 1st Handicap and to Olive Robb for being Runner-up.

Well played all , you did the North proud.
