Charlotte Ellis latest international player to enter the 3rd

Hacienda del Alamo Women's & Girls February Festival

Charlotte Ellis, pictured above by Cal Carson Golf Agency, is the latest England international team player to enter next month's Hacienda del Alamo Ladies & Girls Festival, which is sponsored by Glenmuir.

A Minchinhampton Golf Club member, Charlotte hails from Cheltenham, and is a Gloucestershire county player and played for England in the women's home internationals at Irvine Golf Club, Ayrshire last September.

She had her 24th birthday on January 3 and has a handicap of +2.

Charlotte finished ninth in the 2009 EWGA Order of Merit ... joint runner-up in the English stroke-play championship ... a quarter-finalist in the English mid-amateur championship ... and came equal seventh in the British stroke-play at Royal Aberdeen.

She won the Hampshire Rose and was leading amateur at the Roehampton Gold Cup. She won the English mid-amateur in 2006.

She has entered the main event of the 3rd Hacienda del Alamo Festival, the 54-hole Hacienda del Alamo Ladies Open on the Thursday, Friday and Saturday.

Although she is not in the GB&I Curtis Cup preliminary squad named before Christmas, Charlotte is just the type of "fringe" player who could force herself into the eight-strong team to be announced in late April with strong performances in early-season events such as the HDA Festival.

Lydia Johnston, a junior member of Harleyford Golf Club, has entered the Murcia Under-18 Girls Open and the Hacienda del Alamo Under-18 Girls Open. Lydia, from Marlow, Buckinghamshire, will be 17 years old in May. She has a handicap of 5.8.
