by one point at Cruden Bay

The Scottish Veteran Ladies Golf Association select will start the second and last day of their annual Mary McKenna Salver match with a 2 1/2-1 1/2 lead over the Irish Seniors team at Cruden Bay Golf Club.
The match finishes with eight singles, the first of which tees off at 11am on Sunday.
The Scots' winners today were Lorna Bennett and Fiona De Vries who beat Sheena McElroy and Marilyn Henderson 3 and 2, and Jill Harrison, pictured left by Cal Carson Golf Agency, and Fiona Hunter who beat Helen Jones and Mary McKenna by one hole in a match of rare quality - the better ball was an amazing 10 under par.
