Yorkshire golf: Sue Clements shines as captain to help Kirkbymoorside defeat champions
TEAM captain Sue Clements led by example as she beat former Yorkshire champion Emma Brown in a sudden-death play-off to help Kirkbymoorside knock out champions Malton & Norton in the Mail on Sunday competition.
Malton & Norton won the event in Spain last October, but fell at the first hurdle in an exciting tussle at Kirkbymoorside.
The contest finished all square at 2½ - 2½ after the five singles matches.
