It's turning into a season to treasure for Shrewsbury youngster Natalia Connor.

Her latest success came in the Shropshire Ladies Junior Merit, played in wet conditions at the Corbet Arms, Uffington.

She beat Chelsea Mills of Shifnal 21-16 in the final of what is effectively the qualifier for the British Ladies Junior Merit to add to her title triumphs in the Harold Kaye junior singles and the County Women's Doubles with her Meole Brace clubmate Jenny Wilson.

"It was a well fought final on Saturday and Chelsea held the lead for the early part of the match, making easy work of a green drenched by an overnight downpour," said organiser Louise Cotton.

"Natalia battled hard, pulling back to 16 across before a run of great ends made her this year's winner."
