PGA Cup team v Americans

RON MARSHALL REPORTS
Falkirk’s Craig Matheson will be the only Scot in the Britain & Ireland PGA Cup team (the club professionals’ version of the Ryder Cup) to meet the United States at The Carrick on Loch Lomond in September.
The 26-year-old Falkirk Tryst pro battled his way to a final-round 75 at a gale-swept Dundonald Links today, and finished in a tie for fifth place on 300, from a field of 156 in the Glenmuir PGA Professional Championship.The 10-man team will take on the cream of American club professionals in a bid to regain the trophy won by Britain and Ireland in 2005 at the K Club but relinquished two years ago by the narrowest of margins in Georgia.
The Britain & Ireland team is:
Will Barnes (England), Andrew Barnett (Wales), Jon Bevan (England), James Harris (England), James Lee (Wales), Craig Matheson (Scotland), Jeremy Robinson (England), Paul Simpson (England), Barry Taylor (England) and Paul Wesselingh(England).
