Under 21s golf: Kelsey MacDonald hits top gear to share lead
A FOUR-under-par second round of 70 has drastically shortened the odds against Kelsey MacDonald completing a record-setting fourth win in a row in the Scottish Under-21 girls' stroke-play golf championship at Cardoss Golf Club today.
Starting the day in joint eighth position, four shots off the pace, the Stirling student and Nairn Dunbar member slipped into top gear with a six-birdie, two-bogey round to share the lead on three-under 148 with Elderslie's Alyson McKechin.
McKechin was three over par to the turn, but birdies at the 13th, 17th and 18th saw her match MacDonald's inward half.
Aberdeen-born Gemma Dryburgh had the second-best round of the day, a 72 for 148 and the beaten finalist in the recent Scottish Under-18 girls match-play championship at Glenisla is sharing third place with Portpatrick's Gillian Monteith (73-75).
