Fotheringham joint 12th in Aussie foursomes

Fraser Fotheringham, the British boys' championship runner-up in 2007, from Nairn and Tasmania's Kalem Richardson finished a creditable joint 12th in a field of 51 pairs for the 36-hole Australian men's amateur foursomes golf championship, played in testing weather conditions at Riversdale Golf Club, Victoria today.
A second Scot in the field, Australia-based Stephen Spiers, and his South Australian partner, Heath Riches, tied for 22nd place with 80 and 77 for 157.
The all-Ireland combination of Paul Buckley and Joe Lyons shared 24th place on 158 with scores of 78 and 80.
Scott Arnold (New South Wales) and Daniel Beckmann (Victoria) won by one shot with scores of 72 and 67 for 139.
The Australian foursomes are the traditional curtain-raiser to the main event at Riversdale Golf Club, the Riversdale Cup, in which Fotheringham is competing. A stroke-play event, it tees off on Friday.
