England sending Alex and Kelly
to European Young Masters

PRESS RELEASE ISSUED BY ENGLISH WOMEN'S GOLF ASSOCIATION
Teenagers Alex Peters and Kelly Tidy will represent the English Women’s Golf Association in the European Young Masters at Chantilly, France, from July 24-26.
Alex Peters, 14, plays at Notts Ladies. This season she has won the girls’ title in the Fairhaven Trophy, become the youngest-ever Nottinghamshire champion and partnered her mum, Ann, to a win in the Mothers and Daughters scratch foursomes. She’s a past English U13 champion and the current Midland ladies’ titleholder.
Kelly Tidy, 16, is a member at Royal Birkdale. The Lancashire champion was one of the leading English players at this season’s St Rule Trophy. Kelly is a past winner of the English U-13 and U-15 titles and won the U-21 trophy at the 2007 Welsh open stroke-play championship.
Both players are in the England line-up for the European girls’ team championship which takes place earlier in July. Christine Sparks (Bedfordshire) will be England captain at the European Young Masters.
