TIDWORTH Garrison Golf Club Assistant Professional Joanne Hodge has won her first title of the 2015 season.

In windy conditions on the Old Course at Minchinhampton, Hodge carded a very respectable 74 including an eagle on the first hole to beat a strong professional field by 2 shots.

After finishing 2nd on the WPGA Order of Merit in 2014, this was the start Hodge was looking for as she aims to go one better in 2015 and win the overall Order of Merit.

As an amateur Joanne was an England International and a Gloucestershire County player.

Joanne teaches private golf lessons and runs the Junior coaching programme at Tidworth Garrison Golf Club.
