WHAT A DAY

Brilliant day at Troon in the Final of the Scottish Junior Open,  we shot 31 out 29 back for 60 - 15 under par but unfortunately were 6 shots adrift of the winners !! 2 nett eagles and 11 nett birdies just wasn't enough. Then back to Kinross for the first leg of the Junior Bell Trophy where terrific wins by Amy, Flora and Kieran (w/o)  means we take a 3&2 advantage into tomorrow nights second leg. Left home at 5.45am and home at 10.45pm - long day but loved every minute. Strathmore Juniors still amaze me every time they play - from Kieran's 220yd 3 wood to the the heart of the 18th green at Troon and Kirsten's putt from just off the green for a 4 nett 3 eagle on the 1st to Flora's winning tee shot on 17 at Kinross which was to the top plateau of a two tiered green threading it between 2 bunkers to close out her match. Then when I got home and checked the scores from Finland - Kirsty was top scoring Scot with a 1 over par round of 73 and lies tied 29th. What a day !!!
