Sunny conditions made for a perfect final at the Irish Women’s Close Championship at Rosapenna Golf Club. Supporters and family from both Enniscrone and Royal County Down were in abundance as they took to the beautiful and scenic Rosapenna to watch the final. The 1st tee was consumed with excitement and trepidation as the two players had their eyes firmly set on the Championship Trophy.
US based Sarah Helly (Enniscrone) took on in form Vagliano team member Olivia Mehaffey (RCDL). Both girls were 1st and 2nd qualifiers, respectively. Sarah rolled in a birdie on the 6th hole to take a one shot advantage and continued her steady form to turn 3up on the Royal County Down native. A 20 footer for birdie on the 11th and trouble for Olivia on the 12th meant Sarah took a five hole lead playing the par 4 13th. The Enniscrone player made it look easy as she rolled in a five footer for birdie on the 13th to be crowned Irish Close Champion. Sarah Helly is a past girls international and has always been an avid golfer. She has spent the last two years at Marshall University, West Virginia on a golf scholarship.
