Stephanie wins again in the United States
- this time by 14 strokes in Georgia

United States-based Stephanie Meadow from Antrim, Northern Ireland has won again - by 14 strokes over 36 holes - in an International Junior Golf Tour event at the weekend.
The tournament was held over the testing University of Georgia course at Athens, Georgia but Stephanie had scores of 71 (one under par) and 70 (two under) for a three-under-par total of 141.
It was her third IJGT win over the past two months.
Joint runners-up on 145 were Trish Witherby from Richmond, Indiana and Spanish girl Marta Sanz from Madrid. Marta is a schoolmate of Stephanie's at the International Junior Golf Academy on Hilton Head Island, South Carolina.
Stephanie's dad, Robert, who also lives in America these days, told Kirkwoodgolf.co.uk "Our next tournament is an LPGA qualifier the week before Christmas at The Ginn Resort in Orlando. Then we head for Arizona and the Arizona Silver Belle the week after Christmas."
Stephanie, who will be 17 on January 20, won the Irish girls' championship in 2006, having been beaten finalist in 2004.
