Sandra Morris won the Ladies event with a score of 35 points two points clear of runner up Racheal Hendry. Morris scored 17 points on the front nine and came home in 18.Her score could have been better but for a one washed hole. Runner up Racheal Hendry had to survive a count back to seal her spot after two others Trish Fittock and Linda Kelly also finished on 33 points. Fittock and Kelly featuring in the run down.
