Meadows Women's GC Handicap
12 July 2025, Meadows
The women’s GC handicap tournament on 12 July 2025 was on one of the hottest days of the year and the free ice lollies proved very popular. Meadows welcomed twelve women from four clubs (Meadows, Balgreen, Edinburgh and Auchincruive). The whole tournament was closely fought. The semi-finals and finals were particularly tight and entertaining matches with Jean Wood (Meadows) edging out Gillian Black (Edinburgh and Balgreen), and Joy Rivett (Auchincruive) taking a win over Emma Jamie (Balgreen and Edinburgh) at the golden hoop. Joy went on to win the Tournament Salver and the gold medal, and Jean, who put up a hard fight, took the silver medal. Huge thanks go to all the folks who made this a very successful day including George Plant and the lawn maintenance team, Alison Ross for a delicious spread of cakes, photographers and all the players, of course.
