The Women’s 4’s and 6’s Interclub Finals were held at Avondale Golf Club yesterday in fine, cool conditions, with the course in great order.
The 4’s Final between Lincoln and Coringa 1 was much closer than the final 4-0 result to Lincoln indicated, with two of the four matches going the full distance before the 2024 Champions Lincoln secured the win and made it back-to-back wins in the competition.
For Lincoln, Sally Newton bt Mandy Son 2 up; Heather Templeton bt Cathy Seo 6/5; Keziah Herd bt Tina Park 3/1 and Lois Anderson bt Anna Min 1 up.
The 6’s Final between Clearwater and McLeans Island was also a very tight match, with one match going to the penultimate hole and another being halved at the 18th before the reigning champions for the past two years Clearwater made it a three-peat in the competition and defeated McLeans Island 3.5-2.5.
For Clearwater, Philippa Cooke bt Judy Smith 6/4; Wendy Swanson halved with Sue Collins; Sandra Howat lost to Haley Evans 5/4; Sue Clements bt Linda Stanley 3/2; Sandy Stewart lost to Ailex Barnett 2/1 and Anne Hodgins-Jones bt Marlene Barnes 7/5.
