Ladies’ Championship – 16th August 2020

The Ladies Championship was once again well supported with all the ladies trying to see if they could stop Katie Symonds lifting the trophy.

The going was tough on Saturday and scoring was hard, Katie showed her mental toughness to grind out an 85 but Amanda Hughes- Broadhurst was trying to keep in touch with Katie and didn’t want to let her out of her sight and produced an 89 to be 4 shots behind after day 1.

Amanda’s score also put her joint 1st in the Nett championship along with Alison Scase both on Nett 74, Nicky Whitton just 2 back with a nett 76.

The ladies came strong on day two producing some very good golf and scores but Katie was having none of it and wanted to make her lead as big as possible which she did in fine style shooting a 37 front 9.

Amanda tried to keep close to Katie but as the round went on Katie got stronger and although had to deal with an unfortunate Rules issue on the last hole she kept her head and coolness to finish the job.

Congratulations Katie and well done to Amanda to Finish runner up.

Nicky produced some fine golf to score a nett 74 to go with her 76 on Saturday to claim victory by 1 shot from Arleen McQuirk who produced the best score of the weekend with a nett 69 to finish runner up in the Nett Championship.
