Well Done Pamela

 Pamela Pretswell finished joint second in the Ladies European Tour  Tipsport Golf Masters in the Czech Republic.

Pamela, was happy with joint second place. She said: “I’m absolutely delighted. I played well all week, especially in the second round. I gave myself some chances out there and I’m happy with how I finished on 18. Everything was working nicely and there was a consistency that had been lacking a bit this year. It was good fun.”
