TH E memory of James Braid contin­


ues to be perpetuated at


Clitheroe GoU Club. In the early part of the


20th century James Braid, along with Harry Vardon and John Taylor, did as much as anyone else to pop­ ularise golf in Britain. They were known as "The Great Triumvirate". Braid won the Open five


times and was runner-up on three occasions, and later in life he was much sought after as a course designer. In 1926 Braid created


new tees and greens at Carnoustie, where the 128th Open Championship starts today, and also played a part in the development of the Clitheroe course. Hence the James Braid


Open Singles, a long-stand­ ing annual tournament which attracted 181 com­ petitors to the Whalley Road club on Saturday. Wilpshire's Ian Perkins


had the kind of round Braid himself would have been proud of as, in scorch­ ing and on a day when the course standard scratch was 72, he left the others vying for the Southworth Trophy - the prize on offer in the gross category - trailing in


his wake. Perkins returned a scintil­


lating, four-under-par 67 to


win by no fewer than six shots from Ralph Postleth-


waite of the host club. Paul Marlow (Clitheroe),


Mark Ashworth (Great Harwood) and Denis Greenup (Clitheroe) all handed in 75 and won the other gross prizes. Clitheroe members

long-standing members at Whalley and their notable Captain's Day double is believed to be a club record. Andrew, Whalley's captain-

___ is expected to line up against his old team on Saturday as Stockport bring a strong side to Shawbridge for a show­


piece friendly. The 6ft 5ins giant, who


left Clitheroe in a club record £35,000 deal for Crystal Palace three years ago, has been the subject of intense speculation linking him with Leeds over the


summer. But for the time being at


least, he remains a Hatter, and he is expected to be given a chance to impress new County boss Andy Kil-


ner. The former Claret took


over from Gary Megson late last month, and a source close to the club said: "I would expect Carlo to play. "Anyway, Kilner needs to


have a look at his whole squad, who haven't had a chance to impress him yet. "Kilner will look to impose his style of play on


the team. "The game is being regarded as something of a behind-closed-doors fixture in Stockport so as not to expose his new ideas. "So I would expect the main body of the first team


to be present." That could mean an


opportunity for Steve Parry t. - j___i.


to test his side against the likes of giant striker Brett Angell, formerly with Ever- ton and Sunderland, and

runners-up spot in the European Women's Ama­ teur Team Championship at the picturesque St Ger­


main club, near Paris. After qualifying second


behind France at strokeplay, England entered the match- play element and defeated Spain and Holland 4-3 before succumbing to the host nation 4.5-2.5 in the final on Saturday. Kim partnered Fiona Brown


to victory in two of their three foursomes matches, and in the singles Kim won once, lost once and had one match con­ ceded - in the final, when France were home and dry. This week Kim said: "We


thought we could have returned home as champions, but after the strokeplay rounds it was obvious France were going to be tough oppo­


nents." The Clitheroe GO star


made her debut in the Euro­ pean Championships in Fin­ land in 1997, when England finished seventh. Kim heads to Scotland


next week to represent Great Britain and Northern Ireland in the two-day Vagliano Tro­ phy match against Europe at North Berwick GO. Europe won the Yagliano


Trophy when Kim made her debut in the event in Sweden two years ago.
