IONA AND DENISE PUT UP A FIGHT IN THE RENFREWSHIRE COUNTY CHAMPIONSHIP

Iona's Putt lips out at the 18th

Ten times Renfrewshire County Champion Donna Jackson (Cochrane Castle) had a marathon match this morning against Ranfurly Castle's Iona Stephen in the first round of this years County Championship at Erskine Golf Club.
Iona was 2 up at the14th then she lost a ball at 15th and also lost the 16th to be all square at the 18th. She then had a birdie putt on the 18th to win the match but the ball lipped out.
A variety of pars birdies & bogeys followed with Donna winning with a birdie at the 7th extra hole !
The match lasted for 4 and half hours. What a tussle Iona.
Denise Cowan also put up a great fight against 4 times Champion Megan Briggs and was only 2 over par when she lost 2&1.
Carol Fell did her best and with a poorer putting day that let her down she lost 5&4 to Nicky Henderson from Haggs Castle.

Nine Hole Competitions Clarified

The above can be played by members to retain their competition handicaps. Stableford format only for our two nine hole competitions. This will count as two of the three cards required. You can also submit extra day score(s) which can be Stableford or Stroke Play, please refer to the Extra Day Score Book in the locker room for full details of proceedures. However, if you decide to use this method to submit a card, it must be played over 18 holes to be an acceptable score for Supplementary Score purposes.
Please note, when using the conversion table on the wall in the locker room to obtain your nine hole handicap, you must use your exact, not your playing handicap. e.g. 16.6 not 17.
The nine hole competitions and extra day scores can also be used for obtaining a new competition handicap and for regaining an out of date one. In this instance, there is a minimum submission of 54 holes in total.
