SCOTTISH LADIES
GOLFING ASSOCIATION

Robert Gordon's University student Laura Murray, a member of Alford and Aboyne golf clubs, and Rachael Livingstone (Musselburgh Old), have been selected by the Scottish Ladies Golfing Association to represent Scotland in the Finnish women's amateur golf championship at Helskini Golf Club from August 9 to 11.
Laura, pictured right, with six wins out of six for champions Aberdeenshire, was the top player in the North Division women's inter-county team championship which ended at Cruden Bay on Monday. She is a former Scottish schoolgirls champion and won the North of Scotland girls' title at Kirriemuir last year.
Rachael, pictured far right, is 19 years old, Laura will be 19 in August.
Miss Livingstone, beaten finalist in last year's Scottish Under-18 girls' match-play championship at Peebles, gains her first full cap for Scotland in the European team championship in Italy next month.
Helskinki Golf Club, founded in 1932, is the oldest and most prestigious golf club in Finland. It is six kilometres from the centre of Helskini. A 19th Century mansion serves as the clubhouse at this beautiful parkland course which has a par of 71 and measures 4,782 metres off the women's tees.
