Kilmacolm's Eilidh Briggs the 2011 Renfrewshire County Champion won the West of Scotland Championship at Lanark with four shots to spare over 36 holes.
Alyson McKechin (Elderslie) matched Eilidh's opening round of 73 but could not live with her rival's pace on the second circut.
In the morning round Eilidh had birdies at the fourth, 11th, 13th, 15th and 17th with a bogey at the second and a double bogey at the eighth.
Alyson had an eagle 3 at the 14th and birdies at the second, fourth and ninth. She bogeyed the third ,the 7th and 17th.
In the afternoon round Eilidh added a 74 for 147 with Alyson returning a 78 for second place on 151.
Eilidh had second-round birdies at the first, second, 10th, 11th and 14th. She dropped shots at third, eighth and 12th. With so much in hand, she could afford the luxury of a double bogey at the 18th, knowing that its only consequence was a reduction in her winning margin.

Lanarkshire trio of Lesley Lloyd, Susan Wood and May Hughes won the Senior Team event with the Ayrshire team of Mhairi Mckay, Connie Jaffrey and Emma Hale winning the Junior prize (best Net)
