Mark is King of the Castle at

Bonnyton pro-am with a 65

Mark King chalked up his first Tartan Tour win of the season with a sparkling round of six-under-par 65 in the warm June sunshine at the £7,500 Bonnyton Golf Club double shotgun pro-am at Eaglesham.
The Kingsfield Golf Centre pro, starting at the 10th in the morning session, had birdies at the 11th, 13th and 15th and followed that up with a terrific five-under-par run of birdies at the first, second, third, fifth and sixth.
Mark, 37, a pro for 17 years, had only one bogey, at his fifth hole, the 14th, in halves of 34 (one under) for holes 10 to 18 and 31 (five under) for holes one to nine.
He earned the £1,129 to prize by one shot from Andrew Oldcorn (Kings Links) who picked up a nice runner-up cheque for £903.
King's prize boosted his season's earnings to £8761 from 19 events and enabled him to leapfrog over Craig Lee (unatt) into second place in the money table behind leader David Orr.
Orr and Lee were among a group of five players who tied for third place on 68.
David Orr (East Renfrewnshire) led the amateur trio team, quaintly named "Three Shankers and a Pro," of Barry Chuwen (handicap 17), Johnnie Bennett (9) and Andy Smith (8) to victory in the team event with a net total of 19-under-par 123. They won by four shots from the "Andrew Hay" team of Nicky Gold (+1), Simon Gold (8) and Andrew Biggar (5), led by Mearns Castle pro George Boswells.
