Law, Shields,
Robb, Scott
in McEvoy
Trophy field

David Law (Hazlehead) will have his first competitive outing as the new Scottish boys' champion in this week's Peter McEvoy Trophy, one of the "majors" on the British boys' golfing calendar.
A four-round stroke-play tournament, it tees off at Copt Heath Golf Club, Solihull in Warwickshire on Wednesday.
Past winners of the event include Lee Westwood, Justin Rose and Peter Baker.
Three other Scots in this week's field are Paul Shields (Kirkhill), beaten finalist in the Scottish boys championship this year and last, Chris Robb (Inchmarlo), who reached the semi-finals before losing to David Law, and Jack Scott (Deeside).
Law is adamant that accepting a golf scholarship from a United States college is not for him. Robb says he is concering going there in the autumn of 2010 if he can get fixed up with one of the leading US colleges, and Shields, although less certain about his immediate future, does not think he will end up in the States.
All three would be welcomed with open arms by American college coaches, not to mention the likes of Stirling University who are very active in recruiting teenage Scottish golfers.
"America would be a great experience, I have no doubt, but I would have to commit to a four-year stay over there to get the best out of it. By four years' time, I would hope to be good enough to have turned professional so my ambitions in that direction would be marking time if I went to an American college until say 2013/2014," said Law.
