Walking on to the 7th green on Wednesday, Dorothy was initially disappointed that the ball lying a few yards from the hole was that of her playing partner, Ruth McConkey. However, this soon turned to delight when her ball was discovered in the hole! The club used for the 114yd hole was a 9 iron.
This was Dorothy's third hole-in-one. The first was in 1979 on the 14th hole at Arbroath Golf Club, at the tender age of 16. The second was in 2002 at the 3rd hole at Scotscraig playing in a social golf evening with her father-in-law and two sons. It was great that the third was in a Midland Vet's event during her year as Captain.
Thanks to Joan Prentice and Linda McDonald for instigating this presentation, to Secretary Gail Devereaux and the Council of Leven Golfing Society for organising it and to Matthew Brown (Assistant Pro) for presenting the flag.
Finally, thanks again to Leven Golfing Society for hosting our Autumn Meeting and making us all so welcome.
