SCOTLAND SENIORS LOSE TO ENGLAND

Aberdeen's Sheena Wood had a great win (including a hole in One) over the new Senior British women's amateur champion Catherine Rawthore and Tain's Anne Ryan beat Lulu Housman who tied for third in that tournament but it was not enough to prevent England taking another step towards being crowned champions today (Thursday) in the Senior Women's Home Internationals at Huddersfield Golf Club.
England, who hammered defending champions Ireland on Day 1, followed that up with a 6-2 win over the Scots for whom the writing was on the wall when they lost the foursomes 3-0.
But Wood's 3 and 1 win over Rawthore in the lead-off singles and Ryan's 3 and 2 win restored some pride to the Scottish ranks.
Ireland bounced back from their defeat by England to thrash Wales 7 1/2- 1/2
Thursday's final matches are: Scotland v Ireland and England v Wales.
