SCOTT HENRY BEATEN IN THIRD

ROUND AT PRESTWICK BY

SHAUN McALLISTER

Eighth seed Scott Henry (Cardross) became the second seed to fall by the wayside in the Allied Surveyors Scottish men's amateur championship this afternoon.

In a third-round tie Henry lost by the big margin of 6 and 5 to Shaun McAllister (Craigielaw), pictured right, a member of last year's successful Scotland boys' team and winner of the 2006 Scottish boys' open stroke-play title at Alloa.

Top seed Lloyd Saltman (Craigielaw) had a 3 and 1 third-round win over Stephen Neilson (Dunbar).

Although unseeded, Wallace Booth from Comrie was expected to go through Thursday's play at least but Wallace, leader of the SGU Order of Merit with wins in the Cameron Corbett Vase and the Tennant Cup, was beaten at the 20th by Steven McEwan (Caprington), winner of the Scottish boys' open stroke-play championship in 2005.
