Lanarkshire Girls Compete in Under 16 Championship

Following yesterday's thunder, lightning, torrential rain and hailstones play got underway this morning an hour behind schedule at 9:30am in the Girls Under 16 Championship at Strathmore Golf Centre, Alyth . Conditions today were better but it was still cold and wet at times.
Three Lanarkshire girls are competing, Eva O'Connor, Bothwell Castle. Ellie Bryce, Strathaven and Kirsten Brown, Torrance House. Ellie and Kirsten gained late entry as reserves. Kirsten returned from Spain yesterday, played to 2 under her handicap at Strathmore this morning then attended squad practice at Playsport this evening. Hope she is not too tired tomorrow. 
Their results: Par 72
Eva O'Connor 85
Kirsten Brown 86
Ellie Bryce 87
The leader with a level par 72 is Camilla Mortiglieno from San Remo, Italy.
The second and final round is tomorrow.
