WOLSTENHOLME, CRYER MEET
IN NEW SOUTH WALES
QUARTER-FINALS
England's Gary Wolstenholme (Kilworth Springs) and Matthew Cryer (Coventry) are through to the last eight of the New South Wales amateur championship - but unfortunately they meet in the quarter-finals at Terry Hills Golf & Country Club on Friday.
Wolstenholme and Cryer are the only non-Australians in the tournament in which all the ties are over 36 holes and fifth seed Wolstenholme never missed a fairway or green in regulation in winning by 4 and 3 over Australian Richard Gallichan, the No 12 seed.
Cryer, the No 20 seed, went to the 37th hole for the second day in a row. This time he beat Blake McGrory, the 29th seed who won the recent Lake Macquarie tournament.
Australian champion Tim Stewart, the No 3 seed and conqueror of Steven McEwan (Barassie) in the first round, is through to a quarter-final tie against compatriot Matt Jones.
Gavin Fairfax, who ousted Bryan Fotheringham from Forres on Wednesday, was beaten by one hole by Paul Blake.
Alex Edge, the 17-year-old who toppled No 1 seed Stephen Lewton from Woburn, was cut down to size by Scott Arnold who won by 4 and 3.
Results (seeding in brackets, all players Australian unless stated):
Scott Arnold (16) bt Alex Edge (31) 4 and 3.
Paul Blake (25) bt Gavin Fairfax (24) 1 hole.
Matthew Cryer (Coventry) (20) bt Blake McGrory (29) at 37th.
