CURTIS CUP POINTS TABLE

CURTIS CUP INDIVIDUAL POINTS TABLE

BREANNE LOUCKS WAS MOST SUCCESSFUL
GB&I PLAYER WITH THREE WINS FROM THREE

Breanne Loucks from Wales, one of the surprise GB&I selections for the Curtis Cup match, turned out to be Ada O'Sullivan's most successful player over the two days.
Breanne played three ties and won them all ... 3 and 0, as they say in America, which is where the Wrexham girl is wanted by colleges and universities to play for them on the US college circuit.
Hard luck on Colette Murray, the Scottish-born head coach of the new University of Tennessee Chattanooga women's team which does not debut until the autumn of 2007.
Colette made approaches to Breanne to sign up for UTC long before she was selected for the Curtis Cup and long before she won all three ties.
Now the big US universities are favourites to beat Miss Murray for Breanne's signature.
Martina Gillen, one of four Irish players in the Curtis Cup team, was the second most successful GB&I player with two wins from four outings.
The tell-tale table reads:

Breanne Loucks Played 3. Won 3. Points 3.
Martina Gillen Played 4. Won 2. Lost 2. Points 2.
Naomi Edwards Played 3. Won 1. Lost 2. Points 1.
Kiran Matharu Played 2. Won 1. Lost 1. Points 1.
Melissa Reid Played 4. Won 1. Lost 3. Points 1.
Tara Delaney Played 3. Drew 1. Lost 2. Points 1/2.
Tricia Mangan Played 3. Drew 1. Lost 1. Points 1/2.
Claire Coughlan Played 2. Lost 2. Points 0.
