Saturday morning, 24 January 2026 saw the Ladies Section gather on the New Course (1st New / 2nd New) for two meaningful competitions held concurrently — the K.E. Cheok Cup and the Ladies Consolation Cup. Played over 18 holes of stroke play, the day reflected both achievement and aspiration within the Section, bringing together past Monthly Medal achievers and those seeking their next breakthrough.

The competition was decided over 18 holes of stroke play off a valid WHS Handicap Index of 32.3 and below at the closing date of entries.

Linca Yeoh placed third with 70 nett, followed by Hiroko Suzuki on 73 nett. June Chow and Linda Lim rounded off the top six on 76 nett, with June edging ahead on countback.
Reflecting on her win, Lai Set Fah shared, “I’m so lucky to have a chance to win the K.E. Cheok Cup.”
