Close House’s Maggie Whitehead claimed one-and-a-half singles points for GB&I as the under-16 girls’ team lost out to the Continent of Europe in the Junior Vagliano Trophy at Blairgowrie.
The European side completed a 10-8 win in Perthshire as Europe’s boys won the Jacques Léglise Trophy – both events being hosted together at the same club for the first time.
GB&I started the second day two points adrift of their European rivals and after the spoils were shared in the foursomes, Maggie claimed a 2up victory over Lynn van der Sluijs to add to her half in the singles on day one. However, the point was not quite enough as the European side claimed their seventh win in a row since the match began in 2011.
