The titanic struggle to reach the final of the Dow Putter, the University of Dundee's annual match-play knockout golf tournament, reached a climax on the evening of August 28th when Tricia and Philip Cohen replayed their semi-final on the Downfield Golf Course, Dundee, after their first encounter had ended in a tie. In a fluctuating match, Tricia won the first two holes but had fallen two holes behind by the sixth after Philip had won four holes in a row. Back to level after the 10th, Tricia again fell two behind at the 12th, but rallied strongly to win the next four holes leaving her two up with two to play. Both players made a par threes at the 17th, leaving Tricia the winner 2&1.

Tricia will now meet either Rob Ford (Research and Innovation Services) or Donald Gardiner (Head of College of Life Sciences Stores) in the final where she will attempt to be the first Lady to win the Dow Putter since the event started in the 1880's.
