Gillian Kyle and Audrey Mackenzie (East Renfrewshire) played Evy MacGregor and Fiona Roger (Ranfurly Castle) in the semi final of the winter foursomes today.
The tie was played over Ranfurly Castle in what they could only describe as very cold, very wet and seriously windy conditions. Evy and Fiona took an early 3up lead only to be pegged back to all square after 8 holes.
Gillian and Audrey had an unfortunate ‘struggle’ with the cliff at the 9th and after a good 4 at the 10th hole Evy and Fiona went 2up and were able to cling on to their lead and eventually closed out the match at the 16th.
As you can imagine, it was not a day for much chat on the course – more a matter of survival – however the chat flowed in the clubhouse over hot coffee and bacon and egg rolls.
The other semi final game is between Birgit Clark and Marilyn Muir (Old Ranfurly) against Sandra Gilchrist and Gillian Gibson (Whitecraigs)
