England's most promising girls from the England Golf U16 and U18 regional squads, have been invited to challenge WPGA professionals in the popular One Day Series to gain tournament experience.
The amateurs made an impressive debut in last year’s Series. Megan Clarke (Cleckheaton & District, Image © Leaderboard Photography) and Charlotte West (Harewood Downs) both won events while Bel Wardle (Prestbury), Cloe Frankish (Chart Hills) and Aimee Wilson (Little Aston) were all runners-up.
Rebecca Wood, the England Golf performance manager for women’s golf, commented: “England Golf is very grateful to the WPGA for opening up spaces at these events and supporting our regional programme. The experience is invaluable and gives the girls a great opportunity to compete and to see at first-hand how the professional players approach the game.”
