IRISH TWINS FIRST AND THIRD

IRISH TWINS (11) FINISH FIRST AND THIRD
IN WORLD KIDS' CHAMPIONSHIP

Thanks to the Irish Ladies Golf Union website for bringing us the news that the Maguire twin sisters, junior members at Castle Hume Golf Club, Enniskillen in Co Fermanagh, finished first and joint third in last week's World Kids Championship at Pinehurst, North Carolina.
Competing over a 1,900yd course in the 11-year-old girls' section, Lisa Maguire (Castle Hume) shot splendid rounds of 68, 68 and 64 for a 13-under-par total of 200.
She won by five shots. Leona Maguire scored 71, 70 and 72 for 213 and a share of third place in a field of 59 players.
Remember the names, we will surely be hearing a lot more about them in the years to come.
