COUNTY OPEN AND VETS TROPHY - KINLOSS 14th Septemer 2011

With strong winds and heavy showers for most of the day, sixteen stalwarts managed to complete the 18 holes at Kinloss today 14th September, which was a great achievement as the Vets Trophy has not been won since 2007.  In 2008 and 2010 there were not enough entries to warrant running the competition and in 2009 the weather was so bad the course became unplayable and the competition had to be abandoned.

Despite the atrocious weather today several ladies managed to return some very good scores:-

1st Scratch - Susan MacVicar (Gairloch) - 86
1st Silver - Jeani Hunter (Bonar Bridge) - (19) 75
2nd Silver - Sally Rowan (Inverness) - (19) 78
3rd Silver - Nia Morrison (Carrbridge ) (9) 79
1st Bronze - Doreen McCaig (Forres) - (24) 73
2nd Bronze - Pauline Cronin (Forres) - (27) 77

Congratualtions to all those who completed the course and to Jeani Hunter who won the Vets Trophy.

The winner of the Magic Squares was Linda Offin from Bonar Bridge.  There were two prizes Nos 64 and 88 and Linda had both of them.

Many thanks to Kinloss Country Golf Club for allowing us courtesy of their course.
