Red hot Alison wins qualifier at St Patrick’s

Red hot Alison wins qualifier at St Patrick’s

31 May 2017

THE sun wasn’t the only source of heat during Thursday’s PGA qualifier at St Patrick’s as the scores proved several of the ladies were on fire.

The winner was Alison Rooney with an incredible score of 44 points. Alison could do nothing wrong on the day — drives were straight up the middle of the fairway and putts ped with ease.

In fact, Alison amazingly achieved three 2’s on the eighth, 11th and 15th holes. It seems this is becoming a habit for St Patrick’s ladies as Anne Tumelty also had three 2’s a few weeks ago. 

The great scoring didn’t stop there as there were three ladies who came in with 40 points.

Colette Fitzsimons was second, just edging Vera Kelly into third place on a better back six, while Phyllis Cranston just missed out being in the winners’ enclosure.

Alison will represent St Patrick’s in the PGA competition in Banbridge in September.

The lovely prizes were kindly sponsored by Adrian and Joan Carson.
