DOUGLAS PHILIP TROPHY EVENT
WILL NOT BE PLAYED THIS YEAR
Plans to revamp the Douglas Philip Trophy golf tournament and stage it this Sunday at Deeside Golf Club have been abandoned by Cults Hotel proprietor, Alastair Hutcheon, nephew of the late Douglas Philip, the Aberdeen FC director who started the event in 1947 at Hazlehead.
"The response from golf clubs has been so poor, the number of entries so small that I have decided not to hold the tournament this year," said Alastair, brother in law of Deeside Golf Club professional Frank Coutts.
"It's not the end of it, by any means, but it's back to the drawing board to see if we can come up with a format that has more appeal."
