LADIES OPEN

Our Ladies Open yesterday was a huge success. The weather was fantastic and the course was the best I have ever seen it! It was beautiful and the greens were superb. Well done Scott and your green keeping staff. We had over 100 ladies taking part, all of whom enjoyed the course and of course the lovely food which Lynsey and his staff produced on the day. 'Thank you' to all the centre staff for their efforts. Also a huge thank you to all the ladies who helped on the desk in the morning and to Sheena and Marion for the scoring in the afternoon. Thank you's also go to Pete Tinker and his band of merry men for all there help throughout the day.
Our very own Alexandra Bushby was certainly the star of the day. Alex not only won the Silver Scratch division and Turner Trophy but she did it in style with a course record equaling scratch 68!! Fantastic scoring Alex. Alex also won best Strathmore Lady with a nett 66 plus Silver nearest the pin and longest drive!!




Marion Robertson was the star of the bronze division winning the Scratch prize with a 90 (nett 69) well done Marion fantastic to see you back on form. Chris Sturgis was also leader board in 2nd place bronze scratch with a 95. Well done all.
