BEN PRO-AM AT ARCHERFIELD

PAUL ARTHUR WINS TOP PRIZE WITH A 70

Aberdour’s Paul Arthur won the top prize of £1,135 in the Ben pro-am at Archerfield Golf Club today with a two-under-par round of 70. He had two shots to spare from four players – Jamie Stevenson (Braehead), James McKinnon (Irvine), Gary Collinson (Esporta Dougalston) and Robert Arnott (Bishopbriggs Golf Range).
Jamie Stevenson led home the winning trio of amateurs representing Stirling Inns. They were Robert Dawson (11), former Hearts footballer John Colquhoun (8) and Harry Grant (6). They had a net score of 14-under-par 58 but won only on the better inward half against the Carlsberg team of Iain Watt (15), Kenneth Waugh (18) and Gordon Edgar (8), led by Westerwood professional Sam Cairns, who also had a net 58.
