Golf County Junior Girls Organiser Marcella Tuttle said: "Laura did really well and played a vital part in the team's success. This shows how far girls' golf has progressed over the last few years in the county. A lot of hard work and commitment has gone into developing the girls' game and we're looking forward to a good future."
