Region girls championship

NEWS RELEASE ISSUED BY ENGLISH WOMEN'S GOLF ASSOCIATION
Cheshire’s Bronte Law won the EWGA North region girls’ championship at Moortown, Yorkshire, with a three-under par total for 36 holes.
Bronte, 14, shot three-under 72 in her first round and added an afternoon 75 for a total of 147 and a four-stroke win. The runner-up was Emma Harris from Peel on the Isle of Man, who felt unwell at the start of play but was determined to take part.
Bronte, who plays at Bramhall, is enjoying a great run of form this season. She’s also the English U18 strokeplay champion, the Cheshire girls’ champion and the North of England schools’ champion.
The North region championship produced very good results on a course which was in excellent condition, although playing long.
Spectators commented on the very high standard of golf that was played especially from some of the younger girls.
