Hertfordshire’s Charlie Douglass is top
seed in English girls’ championship
Hertfordshire’s Charlie Douglass is top seed for the match-play stages of the English girls’ championship which is being played at Old Fold Manor, in her home county.
Charlie, who plays at Brocket Hall, led the qualifiers with two rounds of level par 72.
She will be joined in the championship knock-out by four other Hertfordshire girls who all finished in the top 32 after the two rounds of stroke-play qualifying.
They are Lucy Williams (Mid Herts) (74-77), Harriet Key (South Herts) (77-77), Charlotte Field (Bishops Stortford) (76-81) and Lucy Glyn (Porters Park) (80-78).
Charlie’s steady second round included three birdies and she finished two shots clear of England girl international Hannah Barwood (Knowle) who scored 71-75.
“I’m really looking forward to the match-play, I’m really excited, ” said Charlie, who was runner-up in last year’s championship. “The stroke-play is irrelevant now, but it’s put me in a good position. Now I’ve got to see how the rest of the week goes.” She meets Emma Louise Breen (Marlborough) in the first round.
Hannah Barwood was disappointed to drop back into second place and blamed two bad holes – the 14th and 15th - in an otherwise very tidy card. She parred every hole on the front nine, bogeyed the 11th and birdied the 12th before taking a double bogey 5 on the 14th and bogey 5 on the 15th.
“I would have liked to win the qualifying – but you can’t win the overall tournament on the first two days. I’m looking forward to the match-play now,” she said. Her first round opponent is Jerry Lawrence (Rochester & Cobham Park).
The leading 32 players have qualified for the championship match-play. The next 32 have qualified for the second flight.
