Alexandra Bushby represented Strathmore Golf Club at Perth & Kinross Champion of Champions at Gleneagles on sunday and won with a gross 77. Excellent news. The P&K Champion of Champions is a one round event hosted by Perth and Kinross County Golf association and played over the Queens Course. All the invited competitors are Club Champions of P&K golf clubs.

Alexandra was 3 under par through 13, even with a few lost shots over the finishing holes,
Alex still managed to win the scratch event by 2 clear shots.

Alexandra has had an excellent year with the County and this win is certainly a fantastic end to her season.

Well done from us all. (Especially your County Vice Captain!!)

SCOTT TROPHY ROUND 8

Saturday saw the final round of the Scott Trophy and on what was an extremely blustery day Alexandra Bushby scored an impressive gross 73. Her round included 6 birdies!

Scratch
Alexandra Bushby 73
Dawn Butchart 83

Handicap
Alexandra Bushby (4) 69
Dawn Butchart (5) 78
Sheena Scott (10) 78

The Scott Trophy which was presented by Sheena Scott is played over the season over 8 rounds. The best 4 rounds count for both a Scratch Trophy and Handicap Trophy, the results for the over all winners are as follows:

Scratch
Alexandra Bushby 80+78+77+73 = 308
Dawn Butchart 77+76+75+83 = 311
Sandy bushby 83+81+81+76 = 321
Sheena Scott 83+85+86+87 -= 341

Overall winner - Alexandra Bushby

Handicap
Dawn Butchart 72+70+70+78 = 290
Alexandra Bushby 75+73+73+70 = 290
Sandy Bushby 74+74+74+69 = 291
Megan Aird 77+70+68+78 = 293

Although Alexandra and Dawn had equal scores Alexandra can not win both Scratch and Handicap and as Scratch takes precedence Dawn is the over all winner of the Handicap Section.
