County Championship Murcar Links Golf Club 2026

 Murcar Links hosted the County Championship this past weekend . The club provided an exceptional setting, and we appreciated the warm welcome and professionalism shown throughout. 

The course was in outstanding condition, their dedication and attention to detail ensured a Championship worthy of the venue. Many thanks must go to the green keeping staff, admin staff and bar and catering staff for all their help and hard work.

I must give sincere thanks to Carol Wilson for refereeing the final of the Hay Salver and to the Ladies Club Captain - Shirley Copland for refereeing the Scratch Final in the afternoon.

Throughout the event a high standard of golf was displayed by all competitors in tricky,cold and windy  conditions but dry!

The winner of the best scratch qualifying score this year was Claire Prouse (Hazlehead) with a score of 78, beating Carol Wilson (Murcar Links) on the better inward half.

The handicap final was between Brianne Mackay from Duff House Royal and Suzanne Robertson (Fraserburgh). Brianne won the Hay Salver last year and successfully defended her title by beating Suzanne 4& 3. Brianne played excellent golf for her young age and shows great prospects for the future.

Congratulations to Brianne our Hay Salver (Handicap) winner.

In the Championship semi finals Kim Watt (Aberdeen Ladies) beat Sarah Ritchie (Portlethen) 3&2 and Rachel Polson (Peterculter) beat Fiona Campbell (McDonald Ellon) 6&5.

This set up a final between Kim and Rachel. Rachel went 4 up after 5 holes but Kim fought back with courage and determination,both displaying great golf and short game skills entertaining the gallery. 

Congratulations go to Rachel on winning her 4th County Champion title by 3&2.

PETERCULTER Vs ALCGA - FRIENDLY MATCH - SUNDAY 12TH APRIL

Yesterday 12 Ladies from our Winter Coaching Sessions were selected and invited to play a Match at Peterculter Golf Club against their Mens Pennant Team.

It was a dry but very windy day. Although losing 3.5 to 2.5 playing the Men on their Home course, the Ladies did exceptionally well in the conditions as a few had only played the course once before.

It was a very worthwhile exercise with both Teams enjoying their games. Thank you to Peterculter Golf Club for allowing us to play your course and for your friendliness on and off the golf course. 

Suzanne Robertson, Becky Flaherty, Iain Taylor & Scott Stewart                    ALCGA  Team
