Ladies News

Winter Links Captain’s Day
Lady Captain Roisin McCormack extended her thanks to all those who took part in the winter links for the ’24 /’25 season. Despite some miserable seasonal weather at times, good weather seemed to follow the ladies links days apart from one event being cancelled.

Monday’s event had been rescheduled from last week and what a great call it was. The scores reflected the fantastic weather with Celine Markey Cruit Island cruising home with an excellent 42 points.

Order of Merit
Mandy Coyne, Portsalon, put on display another fine round, not only winning the Gross but also the Overall Gross Winner for the Links with a total score of 47.

Taking the Overall Indivdual Nett, with a total score of 24 and coming in a very worthy 3rd place on Monday was Maireaad Harkin, Gweedore.

I can’t fail to mention the Letterkenny Golf Club 3 ball of Maura Cavanagh, Kay Kelly and Marian Keating who dovetailed the entire round and were unfortunate not to convert any of their birdie putts! However, they remained upbeat at the 18th reflecting on the fact they returned with their original balls, which is a major bonus. The ladies have never missed any of the Links and are always a welcome sight in Portsalon Golf Club.
