Fifer Kathleen Webster shrugged off the unpleasant conditions, rain and a blustery breeze, to lead the field with a two-over-par 74 - matching the CSS - at the halfway stage of the Scottish senior women's amateur stroke play championship at West Linton Golf Club today (Tuesday).
On two over par, Webster led by two shots with a round to go from Milngavie's Anna Telfer with Fiona de Vries (St Rule) another stroke back on 77.
Only nine players broke 80 in the far from summery conditions and defending champion Alison Bartlett (Royal Dornoch) goes into the final round eight shots behind the leader on 82.
The top 16 from the stroke play championsip qualify for the Scottish senior women's match play championship over the same course on Thursday and Friday.
