And this year the Ropson family will be celebrating as Kay headed the field of 45 with a score of 36 points.

The eight-handicapper started like a train on the Lakes course with birdies on the first two holes and continued very much in this vein over the front nine which she completed in only one over gross for 22 points.

Returning home Kay struggled a bit as two failures (on 11 and 14) pulled her back towards the chasing pack but par finishes on the last three holes just kept her at the top.
