SCOTS SENIOR WOMEN PREVIEW

PAMELA BIDS FOR SENIORS’ DOUBLE
WHAMMY REPEAT AT MACHRIHANISH

Baberton’s Pamela Williamson is bidding to win the Scottish senior women’s stroke-play title for the fourth time in all at Machrihanish Golf Club tomorrow.
Pamela won the title at East Renfrewshire in 1999, Crail in 2002 and Grantown-on-Spey last year when she had a shot to spare over Liz Campbell (Torwoodlee) at the end of the 36-hole event.
Last year was the first time that the programme was extended to four days to introduce a match-play championship, contested by the leading 16 players in the stroke-play event.
Mrs Williamson won the match-play title as well 12 months ago, beating Moira Thomson (North Berwick) in the final.
A field of 90 competitors have made the long haul down to Machrihanish. A good time will be had by all, whatever the scores and results on the golf course!
