Williams Lake was well represented during the weekend in Prince George at the Ladies Simon Fraser Golf Tournament.

Seven golfers — Barb Vincent, Kelly Flaherty, Peggi Pukacz, Peggy Menning, Stephanie Ferguson, Mabel Cornwall and Lisa Kerley — competed in the 76-player event, a two-day individual stroke play tournament held annually at the Prince George Golf and Curling Club.

Three of the players finished in the top five overall, while five landed in the top five in their respective fields.

Flaherty fell just shy of the overall low gross winner, finishing two strokes back of the leader to finish in second place.

Vincent, playing in flight one, fired her way to first place as the low gross winner (third low gross overall).

Kerley, meanwhile, was first-place low net winner in flight one (tied for fifth overall low gross).

Menning shot to a fourth-place low net result in flight two, while Ferguson was third-place low gross for flight five.

Based on their results, Flaherty qualified from the north central zone for the 2016 BC Women’s Senior Championship to be held at the Kelowna Golf and Country Club, while Kerley qualified for the 2016 BC Mid Amateur Championship to be held at a to-be-announced location.
