Alex Glennie (Kilmarnock Barassie) is through to the semi-finals in her bid to become the third player in as many years to win both the stroke-play and match-play titles at the Scottish Senior Women's Championships at Fortrose and Rosemarkie Golf Club.
But first she will have to beat a formidable opponent in Sheena Wood (Aberdeen Ladies) in the round of the last four on Saturday morning.
Wood, beaten in last year's final by Martine Pow (Selkirk) who is not defending, won through at the 21st against Lorna McKinlay (Dunnikier Park) after being three up on the 10th tee in the quarter-finals.
Glennie beat Linda Dyball (Pitreavie) by 3 and 2 to reach the last four.
The other semi-final will feature Royal Dornoch American member, Ashley Rose and Kathleen Sutherland (Royal Montrose). Rose was taken to the 18th green in both her ties while Sutherland also won by one hole in her quarter-final against No 2 seed Fiona de Vries (St Rule).
