The Final of Women's Weekend Interclub between Pegasus and Bottle Lake 2 was played in a cold southerly wind at Christchurch on Sunday, with the course in geat order.
Pegasus fought out the matches to the last green to narrowly defeat Bottle Lake 2, 2.5 to 1.5.
Pegasus number four, Lynn Younger had a tough challenge giving 12 shots to Anne Brown of Bottle Lake. After an early four hole deficit Anne came back to tie their match at the sixteenth and went on to win 1 up. Pegasus' Kahlia Sutherland played an exceptional game showing no mercy in defeating Angela Poole 7/6. Philippa Robertson gave Pegasus their second win when she defeated Christina Valenzuela 4/2.
With only the number one game still alive, and Bottle Lake's Yumi Masuri 1 up playing the 18th after being four up with four to play, a tied team result was looking a possibility. However, Sharon Stewart sunk a sizeable put to win the 18th hole, tie her match, and give Pegasus the team win and title for the first time in Women's Weekend Interclub.
