The Cheshire partnership of Susan Dye and Jackie Hesketh from Delamere Forest Golf Club won the Peugeot Ladies Golf Union Coronation Foursomes over the Jubilee Course, St Andrews on Monday.

Susan and Jackie, who won the regional eliminator at Portal Golf Club on June 2, qualify to play in next year's Weetabix British Women's Open pro-am at Royal Birkdale Golf Club.
Carol Bates and Alison Carse from the Fereneze club, Barrhead were runners-up with a net score of 78. They had won the Ralston qualifier.
