Članek v East lothian junior golf:
Six East Lothian courses hosted the 650+ Competitors from over 50 Countries who took part. There were 18 ELJGL Players competing, and there were notable performances from some of them. Fraser Walters was 2nd in the Boys 8, Aidan Lawson 3rd in the Boys 9. In the B11 Cameron Mukherjee was T11 and Alexander Yuill was T20. Andrew Hendry was T8 and Callum Kenneally 10th in the Boys 14. Oliver Mukherjee was T15 in the Boys 15. The US Kids President Dan Van Horn, later presented the League with a cheque which will mostly be used to offset Players’ costs for our Juniors on their trips to Pinehurst. All the results can be seen here. The Secretary, assisted by Carys Irvine, acted as a Referee at the Glen on Wednesday at The Glen. Check the scores in the Girls 15-18! Pia Babnik, of Slovenia, winner many previous times in her age group in US Kids events, won the Girls 15-18 section by 18 strokes at Musselburgh! Pia won the the Ladies Scottish Open Strokeplay recently and is now playing off a handicap of plus 5 or 6.
