Rebecca Wilson leaves rivals trailing in her wake

Monifieth's Rebecca Wilson, playing out of the Grange club, recaptured the form that won her Scotland junior international honours when she won the Munross Trophy - an SLGA Order of Merit 36-hole event - at Montrose Links yesterday.

Wilson left the rest of the field trailing as she won the tournament by an impressive margin of six strokes with rounds of 70 and 73 for a three-under-par total of 143.

Kilmacolm teenager Eilidh Briggs, beaten finalist in the recent Scottish women's amateur championship at Machrihanish), and Rachael Walker (Dumfries and County) were Wilson's closest challengers, with both totalling 149.

Briggs had rounds of 76 and 73 to Walker's 74 and 75 and received the second scratch prize by virtue of having the better second round.

Walker, however, won the first handicap prize ahead of Ashley Smith (Monifieth) and Emma Greenlees (Dumfries and Galloway).
