Club News & Events

We welcomed over 100 ladies from far and wide to Kilmacolm for our Ladies Open Day. It was a huge success and despite the deteriorating weather, there was some impressive scoring.

Many congratulations to Ann McKenzie and Sandra Bell from the Old Course Ranfurly Golf Club who were the worthy winners, playing in the worst of the conditions.

It was great to see so many ladies enjoying our course, the catering and clubhouse facilities. Many thanks to all the members who volunteered and the pro shop for all their hard work to help showcase our club.

And here are the results...

On a windy and showery day 95 brave souls ventured out to play in our Gents Open.

The early players, whilst they had the wettest weather of the day, did not have to contend with the higher winds that developed through the afternoon. This was reflected in the scoring.
