ANNE LAING PLAYS IN IRELAND

ANNE LAING IN IRELAND TO MAKE GUEST
LADIES CUP APPEARANCE FOR CORK

Left out of the Scotland women’s home international squad this week, three times Scottish champion Anne Laing will be making a guest appearance for Cork Golf Club this weekend in the national finals of the Suzuki All-Ireland Ladies Cup at Massereene Golf Club, Antrim.
Cork, with past Curtis Cup player Anne and Claire Coughlan, who played in this summer’s Curtis Cup match in Oregon, are obviously the favourites.
Cork face Royal County Down in Saturday first semi-final. Royal County Down will not lack confidence, however. Earlier in the tournament, they toppled Royal Portrush, champions for the past three years.
If any side can beat Cork it could be top seeds The Currah with Irish internationals Maura Morrin, Sinead Keane and Marian Riordan in their line-up. Their Saturday semi-final will be against the winners of Friday’s supplementary play-off between County Louth, champions of Leinster, and Roscommon, champions of Connacht.
