LONDON, Ont. - Andrea Lai and Melissa Gillies are both carrying their golf clubs to OFSAA.

Lai, only in Grade nine, won the individual title with a 77 over 18 holes in A flight Tuesday at Thames Valley golf course.

"I know it's going to be a fun experience and I'm really excited to go," Lai said. "I played pretty solid. My drives were bombing in the fairway. I struggled a bit with my approach shots, but my chipping and putting were okay. I played solid today."

Gillies placed third overall and second in the high school division with a 95.

"I had a pretty poor front nine with a few blow up holes, but I battled through and had a good back nine of 44 which I'm super proud of," Gillies said. "Still got a lot of work to do the get better and more consistent, but I think I'm heading in the right direction."

Lulu Stuckless from Exeter South Huron (86) and Taryn Vasarhelyi of London Central (98), placed second and fourth overall.

Only Lai will be in the open division at OFSAA, the high school provincial tournament, October 14-15, at Lionhead golf club in Brampton.

The Open classification refers to players who have competed in a provincial, state or national championship within the last 12 months.

Paige Campbell, from Stratford St. Mike's and Ellyn Chu, of London Mother Theresa, also qualified for OFSAA, in the high school division.

It will be the first OFSAA appearances for both Lai and Gillies. The pair follow Rams aluma Jade-Tep-Chhun, who qualified for OFSAA three times.

"I know her and I will do great stuff there and have so much fun, said Lai. "I'm looking for at least even par. I'm not going to get too far ahead of myself thinking where I want to place. If I can get more birdies and go lower, that'll be great."

Gillies in Grade 11 played in A flight for the first time.

"I'm really excited about the opportunity to compete at OFSAA," Gillies said. "I'm very pleased with my progress over the past five months, considering I hadn't played a full 18 holes before this summer."

Central Elgin Titans Abbie Neil and Janay Gillard, finished 11th and 16th, respectively in A flight.

Strathroy's Norah Dixon won B flight (nine holes) carding a 46.

Dylan Eadie of London Oakridge was second in B flight with a 50, while Emma Joudrey of London Lucus won third place in a playoff after a round of 51.

Six players scored a 51, including St. Joseph's Rams Charlie Giesbrecht.
