Results from Spanish Senior Women's Doubles Championship

Several East Vets have been participating in the Spanish Senior Women's Amateur Doubles Championship at the Santa Ponsa Golf Club, Majorca. This is a very good tournament consisting, on Days One and Two of two separate 18 hole stroke-play rounds, the first a fourball better ball and the second a two-ball foursome. The tournament continues on Days Three and Four with the Individual championship with 18 holes on each day.

Pamela Williamson (Baberton) and her Canadian partner Diane Williams started off the fourball better ball with a wonderful 74 which found them in second place. Unfortunately the next day, a shocking day weather-wise, produced much higher scoring. As with most of the competitors, Pamela and Diane's two-ball foursomes didn't come up to expectation and they dropped back to seventh place with an 87. The normally strong pairing of Vicki Thomas (Wales) and Sheena McElroy shared this position.

The East Vet contingent also consisted of Lesley Johnston of Gullane Ladies partnered with Suzanne Cadden(Cardross) who were joint 24th. Sue Penman and Dorothy Thomson, both of Gullane, were joint 26th and Barbara Biggart (North Berwick) partnered with Janice Paterson of Drumpellier were joint 31st.
