LOOKING BACK
Kim Carrington must like odd numbered years, but it’s anything but odd that she won the 2019 Alberta Senior Ladies champion, it’s actually become quite common. Last summer at Pine Hills Golf Club in Rocky Mountain House the 2015 and 2017 champion added the 2019 title to her already amazing resume after shooting the low round of the tournament, a 1 over 74 for a 6 stroke victory over Jackie Little and Lynn Kuehn to take the title. The Cottonwood Golf & CC member also won the BC Senior Women’s championship last June and was emotional after her victory especially after letting the Calgary Senior Ladies Championship slip through her fingers the week before after a mental lapse in the final round.
