Lancaster Golf Club’s Daisy Lee helps England's girls and boys to Home Internationals combined title
Lancaster GC’s Daisy Lee enjoyed Home Internationals victory with England’s girls’ and boys’ team.
Lancaster Golf Club’s Daisy Lee played a starring role as England Golf’s girls’ and boys’ team won the Home Internationals for the sixth year running last week.
The event at Monifieth Golf Links in Scotland saw England beat Wales 13-8, Scotland 11.5-9.5 and Ireland 13-8.
Lee picked up four points from a possible six, starting when she teamed up with Elizabeth Wilson for a 2&1 foursomes win over Wales’ Ffion Lockley and Rosie Parsley.
The singles matches saw Lee and Parsley meet again, which ended with Lee winning 8&6.
Wilson and Lee again joined forces to play Scotland, as they finished all square with Carly Mcdonald and Melissa Keay.
Lee then picked up another singles success, seeing off Erin Huskie 6&4.
England’s match with Ireland saw Wilson and Lee again finish all square in the foursomes, this time against Kayleigh Mulholland and Ella Cantwell.
However, Lee’s final singles match brought a defeat to Emma Vinarcik by one hole.
There was also overall victory for the boys, while the girls were runners-up by half a point after beating Wales and drawing with Scotland and Ireland.
Captain Jamie O’Connor said: “The coaches and staff are incredibly proud of the players this week.
“There were so many close and hard-fought contests but it was great to come out on top.
“It was a really successful week for the boys, winning all three matches and winning the individual title - only dropping one-and-a-half points in the foursomes.
“The girls narrowly lost out on the individual title but showed great fight in taking it all the way to the end, only losing out by half a point.
“A massive well done to all our players and everyone involved on a brilliant week and a great result.
“A specific thank you must be given to our national coaches, Steven Orr and John Watson.”
