Babe Zaharias Competition 2026 – Mortonhall

, , , ,

Congratulations to the winner of the Babe Zaharias Trophy, Karen Marshall (Baberton) who played in the last group of the day in torrential rain. Given the dreadful conditions Karen’s score of 76 was miraculous. Karen narrowly  beat Sarah Ledingham (Gullane) by one shot. A fuller description of Karen’s round, written by one of her playing partners can be found on the Midlothian County website.
