The winning Fife line-up with the East Division trophy at Broomieknowe.

FIFE WOMEN BOUND FOR SCOTTISH FINALS AFTER TAKING

EAST DIVISION TITLE

Fife crushed Stirling & Clackmannan 7-2 to clinch the East Division women’s inter-county team golf championship at Broomieknowe Golf Club, Bonnyrigg today (Wed).
Fife’s victory gives them a place alongwith the other three divisional champions in the Scottish inter-county finals at Inchmarlo Golf Centre, Banchory from September 19 to 21.
Last year’s Scottish and East Division title-holders Midlothian ended the three-day programme with a convincing 7-2 win over East Lothian but they lost the vital first-day match to Fife 5-4 and could never make up the leeway after that unless Fife slipped.
Top points-scorers in the tournament were Fife's Krystle Caithness and Fiona (Lockhart) Hastie. They both had 5pt.
