Bad weather on 2nd Day of the Spanish Senior Doubles cause High Scoring

Baberton's Pamela Williamson and her Canadian playing partner, Diane Williams, failed to maintain a title challenge over today's last round of the Spanish international senior women's amateur doubles golf championship at Santa Ponsa Golf Club, Majorca.
On a day of bad weather, when even the winners, the Spanish pair of Cristina Marsans and Caralina Castillejo, scored as high as an 85 for 157, Williamson and Williams slipped from joint second overnight to a final placing of joint seventh alongside Vicky Thomas (Wales) and Sheena McElroy (Ireland) on 161.
Williamson and Williams had a second-round 87 and Thomas and McElroy an 84.
Lesley Johnston (Gullane Ladies) and Suzanne Cadden (Cardoss) finished joint 24th with an 84 for 172.
The all-Gullane Ladies combination of Susan Penman and Dorothy Thomson had a 93 for 175 and finished 26th.
Barbara Biggart (North Berwick) and Janice Paterson (Drumpellier) returned a 96 for 181 and a share of 31st place.
