May was defeated 2 and 1 by Karen Ballantyne, Craigmillar Park, after a very good semi final win by 6 and 5 over the Scottish Seniors Matchplay Champion, Fiona De Vries, today in the Scottish Veteran Ladies Golf Association championship over the Lansdowne course at Blairgowrie.
In the final Karen birdieid the first, third and ninth in establishing a three-hole lead at the turn. They exchanged the 11th and 12th holes before May cut her deficit to two holes with two to play by winning the 16th.
A half at the next ended a match in which both players demonstrated their short-game expertise.
The SVLA championship is contested every year at Blairgowrie by the eight winners of the veterans' divisional championships.
