County Captain, Liz Keohone, takes on Jane Finnie in 2017 final of Ayrshire Ladies Championship

Tough conditions this morning for the semi finals of the Ayrshire Ladies Championship produced 2 very close matches. In the top match Pauline Patrick, Irvine Golf Club, was facing County Captain Liz Keohone, Loudoun Gowf Club. The match finished on the 17th hole with Liz winning 3&1

The second semi between Jane Finnie, Troon Ladies, and Audrey Thompson, Loudoun Gowf Club also went down to the wire, Jane holed her second shot at 16 to go 2up but Audrey won the 17th  with a nice up and down to take the match to 18. A par down the last was enough to secure the win for Jane who won by one hole.

Both finalists are looking for their second championship title, Jane having won at Darley in 1985 and Liz at St Nicholas in 2001.

Semifinal Results
Liz Keohone (Loudoun Gowf) bt Pauline Patrick (Irvine) 3 and 1
Jane Finnie (Troon Ladies) bt Audrey Thompson (Loudoun Gowf) 1 hole
