Bob Arnott and Mark King win
four-ball Musselburgh qualifier

PRESS RELEASE
Bishopbriggs Golf Range's Rob Arnott and Kingsfield's Mark King were delighted to win the Scottish region qualifier for the SkyCaddie PGA Fourball Championship, supported by Sunderland.
The pair birdied the final two holes to finish with a six-under-par 65 at Musselburgh, beating Tom Buchanan and Alastair MacKenzie - who also shot 65 - thanks to a better back nine.
Steven Rettie and Brian Mason grabbed third place with a five-under 66, while Stuart Syme of Dumfries and County and Burntisland's Paul Wytrazek, and Neil Colquhoun and Kenneth Campbell snatched the last two qualifying places after coming through a play-off which also included Paul Wardell and Craig Imlah, who missed out.
Arnott and King started well by birdieing the first hole, then racked up more birdies on the fifth, 11th, 17th and 18th, as well as a sensational eagle on 12.
A bogey at the eighth was the only blemish on their card.
King said: "My partner played better golf than I did today so much of the credit goes to him for winning."
Rob had five birdies and an eagle, and I had a couple of birdies but on the holes he also birdied.
"We played pretty solidly. As a pair we've not played the SkyCaddie competition before so we're really looking forward to it - it should be good fun."
Arnott added: "We're pretty happy to win this qualifier as it's the first time we've entered together. It’s is a great tournament and we're delighted to have qualified for it. To actually have won the qualifier is the icing on the cake."
The final of the SkyCaddie PGA Four-ball Championship, supported by Sunderland, will take place at Fulford Golf Club, Yorkshire from October 1 – 3.
