RAMSAY AND SALTMAN TO PLAY IN EUROPEAN
CHALLENGE TOUR EVENT AT CARDRONA

Richie Ramsay and Lloyd Saltman, two of Scotland’s highest profile amateur players, will join many of Europe’s finest up-and-coming professional talents at the Scottish Challenge presented by Bank of Scotland Corporate.
The appearance of Ramsay and Saltman in the €200,000 event, the third richest tournament on the 2007 Challenge Tour Schedule, to be played at the Macdonald Cardrona Hotel, Golf and Country Club, near Peebles from August 9-12, will be a huge boost to the Scottish Challenge presented by Bank of Scotland Corporate.
Ramsay finished fourth in the Scottish Challenge at Murcar Links last summer before becoming the first Scot to win the US amateur championship since 1898.
Saltman, who won the Silver Medal as the leading amateur at the 2005 Open championship at St Andrews by finishing 15th, has made an unbelievable start to his 2007 season in the amateur ranks, winning four 72-hole titles, including the Lytham Trophy.
Both players featured in the Great Britain and Ireland Walker Cup Team in 2005, and are part of the 20-man squad for this year’s edition of amateur golf’s Ryder Cup.
