Scott McLean Golf Academy - March/April News
Welcome to Scott McLean Golf Academy 2018
Good Evening SMGA players, With first term now nearly behind us its been a very busy time at the Academy, below is a little thats happened Melville Golf Centre- Easter Trading Hours Good Friday - Closed Saturday - 9am-9pm Sunday & Monday - 9am-5pm School Holiday Clinics- The dates for our Junior Clinics will out soon, it will be the second week of the holidays for sure. WA State Amature Results- Congratulations to Yeah-Jin who set herself a top 4 finish, finishing 4th in the stroke and qualifying for the match-play. Yeah-Jin at times played some amazing golf, Friday she won her 2 matches, this lead to a match against the Number 1 seed who she managed to beat and make it through the 36 hole Sunday Final. Hitting off on the Sunday both girls seemed very nervous, as the day day got older the golf improved and by lunch Yeah-Jin was just in front at 2 up. After lunch Abbie played a steady even par 9 holes to be square with 9 holes to go, Yeah-Jin managed to keep herself in front only just though, standing on the 13th all square this is where the result remained the same till the end of 36 holes. A Play Off, the first hole both players hit great tee shots, and both pitched to inside 8 feet, unfortunately after Abbie holed her putt, Yeah-Jin lipped out to lose on the 37th hole. It was a successful week for Yeah-Jin who was also selected to present the WA Ladies Team in South Australia in May, and I am positive that this wont be her last WA State Final either.
