RAIN COSTS EDZELL STUDENT VICTORY
CHANCE AT GOOSE POND, ARIZONA

William Bremner from Edzell, runner-up in last year's Scottish boys' match-play championship, had a victory chance on the US college golf circuit dashed at the weekend by heavy rain which washed out the final round of the Goose Pond Spring Fling college golf tournament at the Goose Pond Colony course, Scottsboro in Arizona.
William, pictured above, a first year student at John A Logan College, Illinois, was lying joint third after rounds of 73 and 71 for level par 144, only one shot behind the joint leaders after 36 holes.
The two-round totals became the final placings when the course was flooded.
John A Logan College head golf coach Tom Ferris is pleased with Bremner - on and off the course.
John A Logan College (595) finished third of 17 teams behind winners Central Alabama Community College (579).
"William had a good fall (autumn) season with a second place in one tournament, a third in another and two fifth-place finishes. He finished the first half of our college season with a scoring average of 73, and had three rounds in the 60s with 67 his lowest round yet," said Tom.
"He is a great person and a pleasure to work with. Scotland can be proud of him as a representative here in the States. We have changed his golfing stance to be a little more upright and he is still adjusting to it.
"Incidentally, you might like to know that Scott McGrenaghan from Paisley, who played for John A Logan College last year and made All-American, is coming back to the States to play for Southern Illinois University after the summer vacation."
