COMMONWEALTH SPOONS

Here's hoping I was the only member to turn up to Comrie last night not knowing it was cancelled! Sorry I didn't post yesterday regarding the cancellation but clearly I was unaware! Below is a note from the Captain regarding the re-arrangements.

Commonwealth Spoons at Comrie

Unfortunately, due to heavy rain, the course became unplayable at Comrie this morning and those already started on their round had to be called in.

This meeting has been re-arranged for Thursday 26th July at Comrie. Please send your entries to Carol Lambie as before. Those who had entries in for to-day will require to re-enter as we know some cannot manage the new date. By the same token, we hope others who could not play to-day will be able to come on the 26th July.

Eilidh Watson could top her dad who was Scottish boys champion in 1973

By HUGH HUNTER

Muckhart’s Eilidh Watson, pictured by Cal Carson Golf Agency, put in a top class performance in the Scottish women's amateur Championship at Tain last week, reaching the semi-final stage after a 19th hole win against the No 3 seed and 2009 champion Megan Briggs (Kilmacolm). Eilidh was at one stage four down to Megan and still one down on the 18th tee so it was quite a comeback.

While losing quite heavily in the semi final to the top seed, Jane Turner (Craigielaw), it looks increasing likely that Eilidh Watson will eventually outperform father Bobby who was a formidable junior golfer, winning the Scottish boys' match-play championship at North Berwick in 1973.
