Megan and Eilidh do well at The Scottish Junior - Under 21 Girl Strokeplay Championships

Nairn Dunbar’s Kelsey MacDonald, playing over her home course, beat English mid-amateur champion Lucy Williams (Mid Herts) with a birdie at the second hole of a sudden-death play-off to win the Scottish Under-21 girls’ open amateur stroke-play championship today
Scottish and Renfrewshire ChampionMegan Briggs (Kilmacolm) was the leading West of Scotland player
She tied for sixth place on 227. Her 2nd round was 1 under par and the 3rd round was level par -- which was fantastic scoring over a very difficult Nairn Dunbar Golf Course. Her younger sister Eilidh was the next best finishing 5 shots behind in 12th place
Carly Booth (Comrie), winner of the Under-21s title at Auchterarder two years ago and unable to defend it last year at Powfoot, finished joint ninth on 230.
