Costello should hold her head high with a performance out weighting her young age where she saw off Tralee's Mary Sheehy, Kanturk's Mairead Martin and County Louth's Deirdre Smith on her way to the senior championship semi-final.
There is no doubt that we will see Costello back at the top of Irish golf for a long time to come.
