| Lorna Bennett congratulates East Captain, Caroline Kinnaird |
The Midland Vets team just failed to wrestle the aptly named Friendship Quaich from the East Vets in their annual match today at the delightful Liberton golf course in the centre of Edinburgh.
In perfect conditions,Midland's Gillian Wallace and Elsie Hutcheon both played well in scoring comfortable wins.The middle order matches were very closely contested and the destiny of the trophy was left in the hands of the last match on the course between Midland's Sarah Walker and East's Jane Herd.All square playing the 18th, Jane's nerves were tested when she was faced with a tricky 6 foot putt to win the hole and the match.She was up to the task.The putt was sunk and with it Midland's hopes of winning the Quaich.Well done and congratulations to the East Vets.
