Fog reduces Ladies Tartan Tour 

event to one round on Tuesday

By COLIN FARQUHARSON

The East Coast fog that delayed the start of the opening day of the Scottish boys golf championship at Dunbar also forced the cancellation of the first-round play in the Ladies Tartan Tour event at Montrose Links.

It was now been reduced to an 18-hole competition, teeing off at 9am Tuesday.

Tour Director Nicola Melville said:

"Everywhere else nearby to Montrose has been fine but the fog hasn't lifted here all day. So I have cancelled round one and we will play 18 holes on Tuesday, hopefully!"

Solheim Cup player Trish Johnson, who has finished first and third in her two outings on the Ladies Tartan Tour, has withdraw, as has another English-based player Emilee Taylor.

First prize at Montrose Links will remain at £1,575 with the top 10 finishers winning money.
