LAURA MURRAY IS QUEEN OF THE CASTLE

AT BALLUMBIE IN LGU CHALLENGE BOWLS

Robert Gordon University student Laura Murray, pictured right, won the Wallace Williamson Bowl with an excellent scratch score of three-under-par 70 in the Scottish LGU Challenge Bowls meeting at Ballumbie Castle Golf Club, Dundee today.
The score will almost certainly be ratified as a new women’s course record. It was three under the Competitive Standard Scratch score for the day.

Isobel Millar (Vale of Leven) scored a double whammy in the Bronze Division, winning the Bronze Scratch Cup with a round of 79 and the LGU Challenge Bowl in this division with a net 77 off 22.
Isobel received both trophies but Ann Callaghan (Ballumbie Castle), playing off 28, was awarded the best net prize with a 78
