Devenish wins North of Scotland title

Lyndsey DevenishAMERICAN college student Lyndsey Devenish from Cruden Bay won the North of Scotland women's amateur golf championship at Downfield, Dundee yesterday. Lyndsey, 20, beat Ann Hay (Letham Grange) by 3 and 2 in the final to mark up another achievement to tell her University of San Francisco golfing team-mates when she returns there after the summer break. A week or so ago Lyndsey helped Aberdeenshire win the North Division team title to qualify for the Scottish county finals in September.

Miss Devenish came back from two down in the early stages to beat Ann Ramsay (Kirriemuir) by two holes in the morning semi-final and she was one down to Ann Hay after two holes in the afternoon. This time Lyndsey hit back earlier and after squaring the match at the fourth she had forged into a four-hole lead after 12. Her opponent prolonged the final by winning the 13th and 15th with a birdie but drove into the rough at the 16th to lose the hole and the match.

Aberdeenshire players completed a double when Anne Bowman (McDonald Ellon), triplet sister of Portlethen Golf Club professional Muriel Thomson, won the handicap championship. Anne, who plays off seven, beat Jane Yellowlees (Murrayshall) by 2 and 1 in the final.

Results:
SCRATCH _ Semi-finals _ L Devenish (Cruden Bay) beat A Ramsay (Kirriemuir) 2 holes; A Hay (Letham Grange) beat C Wilson (Murcar) 2 and 1. Final _ Devenish beat Hay 3 and 2.
