Scottish girls golf last day abandoned

TULLIALLAN'S Kelly Brotherton won her biggest golfing title todate without having to play a single shot in defence of her overnight lead in the BP Scottish Under-21 girls championship at Baberton on Wednesday.

That's because the final round in the 54-hole tournament was abandoned shortly after 10am when a combination of lightning and flash flooding forced the Scottish Ladies Golfing Association organisers to call in the players who were out on the course.

Kelly, only 16 years old with a handicap of two, and the other leaders after 36 holes were not due to tee off until nearer noon. Miss Brotherton had two rounds of 69 on Tuesday for a six-under-par total of 138, one stroke ahead of the title favourite, Clare Queen (Drumpellier) who had scores of 70 and 69. Heather MacRae (Dunblane) was placed third on 141.

Apart from the main championship trophy, Kelly also won the Menzies Trophy for the lowest aggregate by an Under-18 years competitor.
