WHITECRAIG'S LORNA AND MORAG ARE WINNERS IN THE WINTER FOURSOMES

"On another beautiful Autumn day (yesterday 25th October), Lorna Howie and Morag Little (Whitecraigs) played the Winter Foursomes tie against Anita McMillan (Erskine) and Morag Key (Ralston) at Ralston G.C

Lorna and Morag played some very tidy golf and putted well on Ralston's slick greens, while Anita and Morag were suffering from that terrible affliction called "Bunkeritis"! Lorna and Morag were the worthy winners by 5&4

A most enjoyable day and great company.

WINTER FOURSOMES UNDERWAY

A "Selfie" Gill Unick, Carol McNally, Lorna Boyd and Linda Ellery 
The winter foursomes tie was played this week in most beautiful weather conditions at East Renfrewshire between Gill Unick and Carol McNally of Williamwood and Linda Ellery and Lorna Boyd of East Renfrewshire. Unlike our County Championship Final's day in April which was played through snow at East Renfrewshire, this winter tie was played in summer conditions!

Gill and Carol had a solid start and quickly took a 2 up lead. Next few holes were halved and then Gill and Carol stretched their lead. The home girls rallied mid round, however good fortune and putting favoured the visiting pair. The course; the weather; the views and the company were fabulous, a true testament as to why County golf is a wonderful institution to be part of.

Thanks go to Carol for the report and Linda for the Selfie
