Eagle finish helps Stevens and Abbott win Ladies Pairs Scramble at Jumeirah Golf Estates

Jumeirah Golf Estates hosted the recent Pairs Scramble event on the Fire course sponsored by Park Hyatt Dubai.

Each player played their own ball off the tee and the best ball was then chosen. Both players then play from the chosen ball and the process repeats itself until the ball is holed. The team with the lowest net score at the end wins.
