Our Ladies were first out of the blocks for the 2022-2023 season this morning when they took on Old Conna in Greystones in the inaugural Ladies Darcy Cup competition.
Our singles players today were Niamh Kielty, Mary Hutch and Jennifer Moore and our foursomes pairs saw Deirdre Ahern pair up with Sophie Lumley and Mary Lockhart with Shauna Seifried.
All matches are played off scratch and Old Conna came with a very strong team today.
First out was Niamh who turned three down but she fought back, winning fourteen and fifteen to stand on the sixteenth tee box just one down. A half on sixteen was followed by a loss on the seventh and Old Conna had their first point. A good performance for Niamh who was six shots higher than her opponent. Mary Hutch won the ninth to get her match to just two down at the turn but, despite some excellent golf Mary lost on the fifteenth. Again there was a sizable handicap difference with Mary being 7 shots higher than the Old Conna opposition. Jennifer was struggling with a knee injury today but still had her match at all square after an excellent win on the ninth. Despite her best efforts Jennifer’s match was over 2&1 after a loss on the seventeenth.
Our foursomes pairs fared a little better with Deirdre and Sophie getting to the eighteenth all square but it just wasn’t our day and they were unfortunate on the eighteenth to loose one down. Our final Pair of Mary and Shauna, who was making her seniors debut, were the jewels in the crown today winning their match on the fifteenth after a fantastic putting display from Shauna in particular.
Jacinta Dean was team manager today.
