Talented teenager Jemma Nand-Lal has added to her growing list of golfing accomplishments this season, by winning the Ladies Scratch Knockout at the recent Finals Day at Tenby Golf Club.
Jemma who hails from Tenby and also won the crown in 2022, added this year’s Scratch trophy to her Handicap Knockout win earlier in the season, by defeating Holly Watkins in a closely fought 36hole match at the Pembrokeshire Links course.
Despite being 1down after the morning’s 18 holes and there never being more than a couple of holes in it, Jemma remained undeterred by adverse conditions to display a fighting spirit to turn the match on its head by birdie-ing the 34th and 35th holes to walk away a worthy 2&1 winner.
A suitably impressed Ladies County Captain who had watched the match, remarked after the game: “Jemma your short game was of an impeccable standard.”
As if not to be outdone by her achievement, Jemma’s teenage brother Joseph walked away with some silverware at the end of season finale as well, by winning the Men’s Handicap Davis Cup Knockout Final defeating Robert Willcox 1up.
A truly special occasion for a pair of talented siblings.
