Florida's Orange Blossom Tour moves on to Coral Ridge CC
STIRLING STUDENTS QUALIFY BUT MEET
EACH OTHER
EACH OTHER
IN MATCH-PLAY
The good news is that four Stirling University students qualified for the championship flight match-play stages of the 75th Jones/Doherty women’s amateur championship at Coral Ridge Country Club in Fort Lauderdale, Florida.
The not-so-good news is that the bad luck of the automatic draw has decreed that they will play each other in the first round.
Dawn Dewar from Monifieth was the 12th best of the 32 qualifiers with a 79. She will play Emma Tipping from Sandiway, Cheshire. Emma qualified in 21st place with an 84.
Rachel Cassidy from Dublin, was the 13th qualifier with a round of 79. She will play team-mate Claire-Marie Carlton from Fereneze. Claire-Marie was the 20th qualifier with an 83.
The match-play qualifiers also included two of the daughters of former tennis ace Ivan Lendl. Marika Lendl was the No 2 qualifier with a 72 and Isabelle Lendl earned the No 3 seed status with a 73.
Marika plays off +2.3, Isabelle’s actual handicap ix +0.6. They are both students at the IMG David Leadbetter Golf Academy at Bradenton, Florida.
A fifth Stirling student, England’s Catherine Baines qualified for the second flight of the match-play with a score of 104.
So too did independent golfing tourist Sarah Carty from Dublin with a 91. Sarah qualified sixth of eighth, Catherine last of eight.
The Jones/Doherty match-play championship is the third event on the annual Orange Blossom Tour for female amateur golfers in Florida.
