Two lady members of Ormskirk Golf Club finished a creditable third in the WPGA Lombard Trophy.
Ali Gray (left) and her amateur partner Sara Fitzgerald played in the inaugural staging of the 36-hole tournament held at Pestana’s Vila Sol Golf & Resort Hotel in Portugal on Thursday and Friday, September 22 and 23.
The event, targeted at female PGA pros and amateurs, was launched this year with the aiming of encouraging more women to play golf.
Sara, a three-handicapper, is a former Wales amateur international, while Ali is a two-time winner of the Women’s PGA Professional Championship.
The pair earned their place by shooting a six-under-par round of 66 in a qualifier at Camberley Heath and faced rivals from five other clubs in the grand final.
At the end of round one three pairs had negotiated the par-72 course at the Algarve in three-under to share pole position in pursuit of the £2,500 winner’s cheque.
The trio of pacemakers in the tournament comprised a PGA professional and her amateur partner from Dinsdale Spa, the Ormskirk ladies and the team of Wike Ridge Golf Club.
The Ormskirk duo had posted a bogey at the par-four first before atoning with three birdies to be two-under at the turn.
After the second and final round the Dinsdale pairing repeated their 69 for a six-under-par aggregate and won by three shots from the Wike Ridge pair.
Ali Gray and Sara Fitzgerald from Ormskirk finished a shot further back in third place.
