Spanish Senior Ladies Championships

Barbara Biggart (North Berwick)(pictured top left) and Janice Paterson (above) from Drumpellier are the sole Scots participating in the Spanish Senior Ladies Championships 2010 being played at Novo Sancti Petri Golf Club in Cadiz. The first day of the Tournament - played yesterday consisted of a four ball better ball. Playing off a joint handicap of 7.5. Barbara and Janice had managed a very respectable scratch 85. Best score of the day came from the Welsh/Irish combination of Vicki Thomas and Sheena McElroy with a wonderful 72. The format of Day 2 was more challenging, being a two ball foursome. Over the board, the scores were very much higher in the second round compared with the first although Vicki and Sheena have just managed to retain their lead wth a second round 80 for a total of 152. Barbara and Janice produced a pretty decent second round score of 88 for a total of 173 now making them 15th in the field. The conditions they played in are not at hand but such is the differential in both scores throughout the entry in general, it would be reasonable to suppose the weather had not been so good. Tomorrow is the first of the two strokeplay days towards the Spanish Senior Strokeplay Championship when everyone is on her own so best of luck Barbara and Janice.
