In a display of resilience and skill, Trinidad and Tobago’s Isabella Ramdeen emerged victorious at the 2025 Ladies Golf Invitational, held at the St Andrews Golf Club on October 11-12. Despite relentless rainfall that plagued the Moka course over the two-day event, Ramdeen maintained her composure to secure the first flight title with a 15-over-par score across 27 holes, finishing four shots ahead of runner-up Elise Laborde. The tournament, sponsored by Agostini Insurance Brokers (AIB) Ltd, also saw Hailey Layne claim top honours in the net division, while Kahlan Francis delivered a commendable performance among the prize winners. Veteran golfer Joanne Bryden made a triumphant return to competitive play by winning the second flight, with Gail Rajack and Juliana Jodhan-Boodram securing second and third places, respectively. In the third flight, Symoniez Clouston edged out Brenda Clarke by three points under the Stableford format, while Ann Marie Forde of the Tobago Ladies clinched the newly introduced fourth flight. Despite the challenging weather, which forced early halts and shortened rounds, all four divisions successfully crowned champions. Now in its 30th year, the Ladies Golf Invitational remains a cornerstone of women’s golf in Trinidad and Tobago, showcasing inclusivity with expanded handicap ranges and tailored formats for players of all skill levels. St Andrews ladies’ captain Nicole Lawrence lauded the growing network of women’s golf groups for fostering participation and camaraderie, while AIB executive director Mark Henderson joined players in celebrating the event’s success. “The weather may have been wet, but the enthusiasm and friendship on display made for a truly memorable weekend,” Lawrence remarked.
