Clare golfer shoots all four rounds in 70s to take Amateur title
Digby’s Anne Balser, another 20-year-old, recovered from a shaky third round and posted a 75, her best score of the tournament, to finish fourth.
LeBlanc and Balser will be among the foursome representing Nova Scotia at the Canadian Women’s Amateur championship that begins July 29 at the Elmhurst Golf and Country Club in Winnipeg. Joining them will be 19-year-old Laura Harris of Ken-Wo, who finished in second place Saturday, and 14-year-old Irene Jung of The Links at Penn Hills.
Already blessed with a 10-stroke advantage heading into Saturday’s round at West Pubnico Golf and Country Club, LeBlanc fired her best round of the tournament — a 3-over 75 — to easily take the four-day provincial championship by a whopping nine shots over defending champion Laura Harris of Ken-Wo.
LeBlanc, who plays out of Clare Golf and Country Club, had rounds of 76-79-79-75 to claim her first Amateur crown. She finished second last year to Harris, a reverse of this year’s results.
Balser’s rounds of 82-79-90-75 gave her a total of 326, leaving her 17 strokes behind LeBlanc who began Saturday’s final round with a 10-shot lead.
