Final Place for Charlotte

Charlotte Dalton has again done herself and Ladbrook proud, by not only qualifying for the knockout stages of this prestigious event at Wallasey, but also making good progress by winning three further matches to move ever nearer to a final place on Friday. A fine performance against Holly Aitcheson eased her way into the afternoon semi-final against Alexandra Bushby. A comfortable victory now saw Charlotte contest the final against Lucy Williams. The two players shared 10 birdies in the round.The players put on a tremendous show for the spectators, with most holes won with birdies.
They halved the first four before Lucy edged ahead with a birdie two on the 5th and from then on she held the lead in the match.
The sixth was halved with birdies, then Lucy birdied the 8th to go two up. She lost the 10th with a rare bogey but came straight back with a birdie on the 11th, to re-establish her two-hole advantage.
Charlotte, in turn, won the 12th with a birdie two to again reduce the lead to one hole. However Lucy won the 13th with a par and, was conceded the long 14th which she reached in two. The players halved the 15th in par before Lucy clinched the victory on the 16th, being 5 under par for the match.
With Elizabeth Earnshaw attending in her official capacity as President of the EWGA, an amazing week finally came to an end on the 16th green with Charlotte runner up, having exceeded all her expectations, achieving many great wins on the way and the respect of her fellow competitors. Congratulations!
