Behan to the fore

It's been a busy week for Irish international Lilian Behan

It's been a busy week for Irish international Lilian Behan. First she led Curragh to the Senior Cup finals and on Sunday won her second successive Statoil-sponsored Hermitage Scratch Cup. Behan opened with an impressive 73 to lead the field by three shots and added a steady 76 in the afternoon to win by three from Curtis Cup debutante Suzanne O'Brien, with Hazel Kavanagh third on 153. O'Brien had two rounds of 76 while Kavanagh shot 78 75. Ann Hughes from Milltown won the nett on a countback from local Denise O'Sullivan with a 36-hole total off 151.
