Leona Maguire wins by six at Woodenbridge
Irish champion Leona Maguire closed with a course record equalling 67 to take the 36-hole Woodenbridge Scratch Cup by a massive six shots.
The 14-year old trailed halfway leaders Danielle McVeigh (Royal Co. Down Ladies) and Anne McCormack (Roscommon) by one stroke at lunchtime.
But she was untouchable in the afternoon as she racked up the birdies in a sensational, five-under par effort.
McVeigh had to settle for second place after a second successive 74 while local favourite Louise Mernagh beat Maguire's twin sister Lisa out of third place on a countback.
Daryl Conroy (Castlebar) fired an impressive 66 nett in the afternoon to win the best nett over 36 holes while Anne McCormack (Roscommon) and Carla Reynolds (Seapoint) won the individual 18s.
