RHONA AND JANE PROGRESS TO THE SECOND ROUND
Huge congratulations go to Strathmore Ladies representatives, Jane Taylor and Rhona McGeoghegan, in The Daily Mail Foursome's national event. Jane and Rhona played against Blairgowrie pair Muriel Rae and Jean Laburn over the Rosemount course. Jane and Rhona received 3 shots and were panicking when they were 2 down after 2 however they kept their nerve and won the match 2 & 1. The end result was definitely worth getting soaked for!!
Well done and look forward to hearing how you both do in the next round.

FIRST ROUND LEITFIE CHAMPIONSHIP
On a lovely spring day we played our first round of the Leiftie Links Championship. Chris Sturgis played an absolute storm and posted a net 52!! A fantastic score but then not far behind her is Gillian Allardice with a net 54. In the scratch section Dawn Butchart scored a 70 with Alexandra Bushby and Sheena Scott on 72. So all to play for this weekend. Here's hoping the weather is as kind!
The draw is the same for this week with the exception of one player Chris Tinker who will tee off at 12.15 this week.

WINTER SINGLES FINAL
The final of the winter singles took place on Saturday between Alexandra Bushby and Chris Sturgis. Alexandra was on form and won the match at the 15th. This is the first time Alexandra has won the trophy and she certainly deserved the win. This is also the first year for Alexandra as a Perth and Kinross County Squad member and we look forward to more successes in the coming year. Commiserations go to Chris, but it is a great achievement to reach any final so well done to them both.

WINTER DOUBLES KNOCKOUT
The final of the winter doubles knockout between Gillian Allardice and Hiroko Graham versus Joan Merry and Sheena Peacock took place on Thursday and our congratulations go to the winners Gillian and Hiroko. Gillian and Hiroko have partnered each other over the last few years and are delighted to have lifted the trophy for the first time. Commiserations go to Sheena and Joan. Sheena and Joan have partnered each other for sometime now and are no strangers to the winter knockout finals. They have won this event on more than one occasion and prove along with Hiroko and Gillian to be among the strongest partnerships of the section.
The final was extremely close with Hiroko and Gillian 2 up at the turn Joan and Sheena fought back to all square by winning the 10th and 11th. But this did not deter Hiroko and Gillian who went on to win the 13th 14th and 16th to clinch the match 3 & 2. Well done to both for what was an excellent match.

MAIL ON SUNDAY 2ND ROUND RESULTS
Annette Grewar, Dawn Butchart, Sheena Scott, Sandy Bushby and Alexandra Bushby played the 2nd round tie at Craigie Hill in very cold and wet conditions. Sandy and Dawn both won their matches however the strong Craigie Hill team won the other three matches which will take them through to the next stages of the competition.
Although the team was disappointed all members representing Strathmore did us proud and played golf in the true spirit of the game.
For our very first year in this event we have done very well and I would like to thank all who took part and now look forward to our next attempt!

WINTER LEAGUE RESULTS 1st MARCH
When most of us were wrapped up at home or sitting (like me) in a cosy office, five very brave ladies went for a invigorating game of golf!! Gillian Allardice, Mary McDiarmont, Rhona McGeoghegan, Sheena Peacock and Marion Robertson were the ladies who braved the elements and played their winter league on what was one of the coldest days yet!! I couldn't believe it when Marion phoned with the days results. Hats off to you all!! But special congratulations must go to our player of the moment Gillian Allardice who once again played under handicap with 25 points!! Excellent play Gillian. The runner up was Rhona with a very respectable 23 points.
Well done to all the ladies who played today and I do hope it is better for your next week. Although I don't know what there is that could possibly make you stay at home!
