Dorset 12-year-old sets course record

PRESS RELEASE ISSUED BY ENGLISH WOMEN'S GOLF ASSOCIATION
Twelve-year-old Georgia Hall has just slashed three shots off the Old course record at Ferndown in Dorset – with a five-under par 67.
Georgia, who plays off four, is a member of the English Women’s Golf Association’s South West Super Birdies Squad. She was playing in the Ferndown ladies’ championship when she set the course record with 11 pars, one bogey and six birdies. She eventually finished third in the 54-hole competition. Georgia has played under par a couple of times on Ferndown’s President’s course, but this was the first time she had beaten par on the Old course.
Georgia was also third in the English girls’ Under-13 championship which was held at Ramside, County Durham. She is a member of the Dorset team which has won through to the finals of the English counties’ championship.
