Royal Dornoch Winter Newsletter 2024

were Alison Bartlett Champion (Scratch), Frances
Robertson (Handicap) and Norma Fleming
(Barnfather Trophy). Well done ladies.
Holes in One this year: Kathleen Mackenzie did it
on the 2nd of Struie Course and I had an ace on
the 6th Hole of the Championship Course. We
were both obviously shocked and delighted!
The ladies Committee are travelling to
Portmarnock Golf Club in Dublin next year at the
end of April for 3 days to play 2 matches against
Portmarnock ladies which is going to be a very
exciting experience and the Portmarnock ladies will
return to Dornoch for a reciprocal match in 2025.
Look out Dublin! Thank you Neil for helping us
with flights and accommodation.
