JENNA WILSON RETAINS SLGA ORDER OF
MERIT TITLE AS SHE TURNS PRO


Scottish champion Jenna Wilson from Strathaven has bowed out of the amateur ranks as winner of the Scottish Ladies Golfing Association Order of Merit women's title for the second year in a row.
Jenna, who has turned professional since graduating from the recent Ladies European Tour Qualifying School, averaged a score of 1.80 UNDER the CSS in the 10 designated tournaments.
She won by the narrowest of margins - one-fifth of a stroke - from Michele Thomson, the Aberdeenshire champion and winner of the SLGA Order of Merit girls' title last year.
Michele finished runner-up, only .20 of a stroke behind Jenna with an average of -1.60.
They were the only two players to have a minus CSS average.
Emily Ogilvy (Auchterarder) finished third with +0.20.
Carly Booth (Comrie) finished No 1 in the SLGA girls’ rankings for 2007 with the outstanding average score of 4.17 under CSS in six designated tournaments.
No other girl had an average score under CSS.
Kelsey MacDonald (Nairn Dunbar) finished second with +0.17.
