It was well into the evening before Webster, Bennett, Fiona Hunter (Southerness) and Kathleen Sutherland (Royal Montrose) achieved the victories that took them through to the last four.
Webster and Bennett are in opposite halves of the draw so an all-Ladybank final is possible - although Fiona Hunter and Kathleen Sutherland will do their very best to prevent it.
Webster's 19th hole win over May Hughes (Lanbark) was the tie of the delayed quarter-finals.
It was the slaughter of the seeds in the first round.
The top three seeds - stroke-play champion West Vets Captain Anna Telfer (Milngavie), No 2 Heather Anderson (Blairgowrie), the defending champion, and Margaret Tough (Falkirk) - were all knocked out in their first ties.
No 1 qualifier Anna Telfer lost at the 19th to the last of the 16 qualifiers Louise Graham (Carnoustie Ladies) who was later herself beaten by Fiona Hunter.
