It was a lovely afternoon for the Final of the Winter Foursomes today at Kilmacolm....not too much wind, not very cold and no rain..a great improvement on last year's final!.
The Final was being contested between Glennis Rintoul and Margaret Gray....Old Ranfurly and Janette McCartney--Erskine and Carol Fell--Ranfurly Castle.
Janette and Carol were giving away 10 shots which sounded a lot but they went ahead after a lovely approach shot at the 1st by Janette and they never lost their lead from then on. The 1st nine were hotly contested with Janette and Carol going out in a very steady 40 and they stood on the 10th tee 2up as Glennis and Margaret kept close on their heels only losing the 2 holes because of the putts . But sadly Glennis and Margaret could not keep it up and lost 10, 11 and 13 to put them 5 down with 5 to play. It was all over at the 14th and we congratulate Carol and Janette as worthy winners and well done to the Old Ranfurly pair who put up a good fight.


We all retired to the clubhouse at Kilmacolm where we partook of "tea and scones and.......WINE!" -- Click on the photo on the left to see your President Eileen Gibb enjoying a scone plus she had a little wine as well !
