KRYSTLE SPARKLES IN

COUGAR CLASSIC

Curtis Cup Scot Krystle Caithness shot the lowest round of the tournament so far - a five-under-par 67 - to improve on her opening score by 10 shots and her place in the field of 120 from joint 67th overnight to a share of 13th place on level par 144 with one round to go in the Cougar Classic women's college golf tournament at Yeamans Hall, Hannahan, South Carolina today.
The 19-year-old Fifer, pictured above, a student at Georgia University, had birdies at the fifth, seventh, 10th, 13th 14th and 15th and she finished in grand style with an eagle 3 at the last for an inward 32. She had bogeys at the 11th and 12th.
Georgia team-mate Mallory Hetzel leads with 68 and 69 for 137 and Georgia lead the team event by 14 shots.
Rebecca Watson (Tennessee), a second Scot in the tournament, is in joint 102nd place after rounds of 82 and 79 for 161. She had double bogey 6s at the first and 14th which cancelled out birdies at the fourth and 13th.
Channel Islander Olivia Jordan-Higgins (Charleston Southern) joined Krystle Caithness on the 140 mark late in the day - she was in the last group to finish - with rounds of 74 and 70. Olivia had birdies at the first, third, fourth, 15th and 18th.

ENGLISH COUNTY FINALS AT LONG ASHTON


Yorkshire make winning start

by beating Sussex 6-3

Yorkshire began their defence of the English counties’ championship with a 6-3 win over Sussex at Long Ashton Golf Club in Gloucestershire.
In the day’s other matches, Leicestershire beat Dorset 6-3 while Hertfordshire beat Warwickshire, also by the margin of 6-3.
Yorkshire’s match was tighter than the result suggests, with seven games going to the 18th. Of those, the defending champions won four while Sussex claimed one - in spectacular fashion. Their county champion, Hannah Ralph, eagled the last to beat the birdie of Naomi Edwards (pictured by Cal Carson Golf Agency, all rights reserved) and win the point. The other two games were halved.
Yorkshire training officer Joy Hunter commented: “The scoreline makes it look comfortable, but it was tough. Overall, though, it was a good result and a good start to the week. Everyone did well and they all kept their heads up.”
Sussex captain Sheila Williams was delighted with her team’s efforts. “Seven of the matches went to the I8th and hopefully we gave Yorkshire a bit of a fright. I am thrilled to bits with my team, I’m really, really proud of them.”
Hertfordshire also fought hard to win their match against Warwickshire. They held a 2-1 advantage after the morning foursomes but they were trailing at the halfway stage of the singles. Team captain Jaki White said: “I was really pleased with they way they all rallied round. They dug deep and played really well, especially on the back nine.”
Leicestershire got off to a quick start. They won all three of their morning foursomes and in the singles their top two players had comfortable wins to secure the point. Team captain Tracy Bourn remarked: “It was brilliant. It’s just really good to get off to a winning start. You can’t win it on the first day – but you can lose it. Now it’s all still in our hands.”
Her team is in birthday mood: county champion Jamie Leigh-Voss celebrated her 15th birthday on practice day while Helen Lowe enjoyed her 45th birthday today.

Kellee Booth, the star that never was
as a pro, decides it's time to step away

By COLIN FARQUHARSON
(based on an article in this week's US Duramed Futures Tour Newsletter)
It's the time of year when top-flight and even not-so-top-flight female amateurs the world over are turning their thoughts to taking the first steps towards - they hope - fame and fortune as tour professionals.
Unfortunately for them, headline success as an amateur does not guarantee they will make the grade as pros.
There are a few lines in "Do you know the way to San Jose?" that are just as applicable to pro golf as they are to would-be movie stars:
"In a week, maybe two, they'll make you a star
"Weeks turn into years, how quick they pass
"And all the stars that never were
"Are parking cars and pumping gas."
The latest example of pride before a fall, or more a steady decline, is Kellee Booth, who won five of her seven ties for the United States in the 1996-1998 Curtis Cup matches. She was one of the most decorated amateurs and collegians in US women’s golf. Daughter of a Curtis Cup player, she had the bloodline to become an LPGA Legend. It never happened.
When she made the transfer to the pro ranks nine years ago, Kellee's golfing talent was left behind like a suitcase at an airport, but one that never turned up.
She was the last amateur to beat a field of professionals and win a Futures Tour event. That was the 1999 Pacific Bell Classic in her native California.
Booth, now 32 and a resident of McKinney, Texas, has decided that the time has come to accept that she is never going to be as good a tour pro as she was an amateur.
In her rookie season (1999), she finished 46th on the LPGA’s money list and posted three top-10 finishes, including a tie for 10th at the Women’s British Open and a tie for seventh at the Safeway LPGA Golf Championship.
The next season, Booth began to experience nagging injuries and she was eventually diagnosed with tendonitis in her left shoulder.
With her self-confidence level on the golf course, ebbing away, Booth eventually lost her LPGA status.
“I was devastated, but I was more worried about what they would find when I had surgery,” said Booth.
Booth underwent surgery in November 2003. Doctors found scar tissue on the bicep tendon. The scar tissue would inflame and the tissue would hit the nerve, causing discomfort. That was the physical part of the problem. The residual effect was the mental effect the injury had on her – a fear that she had never known as an amateur.
She did not advance past the sectional stage of later LPGA Q Schools and turned to the Futures Tour in 2006 with little or no success.
Booth began working in the off-season, selling houses in Dallas. Even entering the 2008 season, she didn’t feel fully prepared for competition. Making only one cut in 14 events this year, Booth walked away from the scoring tent at the last regular-season event earlier this month with a heavy heart.
She had finished the year ranked 113th on the money list. Her scoring average hovered around 76.6 strokes per round. Deep in her champion’s heart, she knew what she needed to do.
Now it’s time for me to step away,” she said, her dark eyes full of tears.
“It’s been a big struggle. I found that this year even my good shots weren’t working anymore.”
Booth doesn’t know what happened to the game that once seemed destined for professional greatness. She admits the injury “put a lot of doubt” into her mind. Suddenly, she was seeing places on the golf course that she’d never seen. Suddenly, she was shooting scores she had not shot since the early days of junior golf.
“It’s not that I stopped believing – I just lost my desire to compete,” she added. “The fun was taken out of the game.”
And while Booth was never able to match her professional career against her amateur years, she has no regrets.
“I’d still do it the same way,” she said. “I’d tell young people to go to college. I’d tell them professional golf is not for everybody. Right now, I need to step away. I feel too fizzled out.”
Booth says she is now in the “exploring” stage of her career. She is interested in staying in the golf industry, perhaps as a sales rep, or working in junior or amateur golf.
She might even seek reinstatement as an amateur.
While it’s hard for Booth to hide her disappointment, there is no shame. And even through tears, she admits having a sense of “excitement to do something new.”

Junior Ryder Cup match starts
in Kentucky today

FROM THE EUROPEAN TOUR WEBSITE:
The seventh Junior Ryder Cup gets underway in America today with the European boys and girls benefitting from the expertise and inspiration of Tommy Horton MBE, the first Honorary Captain of the European Team.
The Junior Ryder Cup takes place at The Club at Olde Stone, Bowling Green, Kentucky, on Monday and Tuesday before the two teams play a Friendship exhibition match at Valhalla on Wednesday, where two days later Nick Faldo’s European Team will launch their bid to win The Ryder Cup for a fourth successive time against Paul Azinger’s US Team.
Since the inaugural Junior Ryder Cup in 1995, Europe have won four matches, the United States one with the last match, in 2006 at The Celtic Manor Resort in South Wales, dramatically halved six points apiece. Sergio Garcia, who this week will compete in his fifth Ryder Cup, played in that first Junior Ryder Cup contest.
This year, European Captain Gary Stangl’s 12-strong Team includes the Irish golfing sensations, 13-year-old identical twins Lisa and Leona Maguire, Spain’s Anna Arrese, Scotland’s Carly Booth, Kelly Tidy of England and Denmark’s Daisy Nielsen.
The boys' half of the team comprises the French duo of Stanislas Gautier and Julien Brun, Germany’s Moritz Lampert, Spain’s Adrian Otaegui, Englishman Chris Lloyd and Italy’s Matteo Manassero.
Horton has made a massive contribution to the game throughout his career as a Ryder Cup player, tournament winner, skilled administrator as a member of the PGA European Tour Board of Directors and Chairman of the Seniors Tour Committee, course designer and renowned coach, and this week his support of the team is proving invaluable in helping the six boys and girls to prepare for the match against the United States.
His contribution was recognised prior to the team’s departure when George O’Grady, Chief Executive of The European Tour, presented Horton with a Rolex watch, courtesy of the Official Partners to The Ryder Cup, to mark his appointment as Honorary Captain of the European Junior Ryder Cup Team.
Widely recognised as one of the finest short game exponents in golf, Horton’s expertise is sure to help the European Team deal with the challenge of The Club at Olde Stone, a course with challenging greens and run-offs where chipping and putting will be of a premium.
He said: “This is a fantastic opportunity for all these young players, something they have never experienced.
“Gary (Stangl), Fredrik (Lindgren) and I have been helping them prepare as I don’t think they have played a golf course like this before. It is a marvellous opportunity and hopefully we can use our collective knowledge to help them out a little.
“Since the team arrived in Kentucky on Friday, they have bonded and are now communicating as a team and that is the whole objective of this. The European Ryder Cup Team has shown us that the way to win is as a team and that is what we are working towards.”
European Junior Ryder Cup Captain Gary Stangl is excited to showcase his European players. "They do not have to prove anything, they have played well and are very motivated,” said Stangl, who was a member of the Austrian National Junior Team from 1993-'95, and was a member of the Austrian National Team from 1995-'99. "I want to make sure they feel comfortable with each other and have a lot of fun."
The Junior Ryder Cup features six foursomes matches followed by mixed four-ball on the first day and 12 singles matches on day two. This is a change of format from previous years and will generate twice as many points to play for and makes the format a mini version of The Ryder Cup.
The Friendship Match is a new addition which will see the juniors playing a nine hole exhibition at Valhalla on Wednesday which will be a phenomenal experience for the juniors competing on The Ryder Cup Course just two days before The 2008 Ryder Cup between the United States and Europe gets underway

Krystle 77, Rebecca 82 in first

round of Cougar Classic

Krystle Caithness did not have such a good round - five-over-par 77 for a share of 67th place in a field of 112 - but her University of Georgia team-mates picked up their game with a result that Georgia was sharing the lead with Virginia University in the team event at the end of the first day of the Cougar Classic, hosted by the College of Charleston a Yeamans Hall Club, South Carolina.

The Curtis Cup player had only one birdie, at the long seventh, in halves of 38 and 39. She double bogeyed the short 13th and dropped single shots at the second, fifth, ninth and 17th.

Georgia team-mate Mallory Hetzel and Whitney Neuhauser (Virginia) led the field with matching four-under-par 68s.
Olivia Jordan-Higgins (Charleston Southern) from the Channel Islands was lying in joint 27th place with a 74. Olivia had birdies at the third, seventh and 18th in halves of 36 and 38.
Rebecca Watson (Tennessee) from South Queensferry had an 82 (41-41). Rebecca had no birdies. She had a triple bogey 8 at the long ninth.
+Krystle Caithness's family home is now Cupar, not Cellardyke, as reported recently on Kirkwoodgolf.co.uk
