Competition at Nairn Dunbar

Cameron, McWilliam and Campbell tie

on 66 in North Scottish Alliance

By ALAN COWIE
There was a three-way tie for the principal scratch award in Saturday's North Scottish Golfers' Alliance at Nairn Dunbar.
Allan Cameron (Inverness), Neil McWilliam (Garmouth & Kingston) and Chris Campbell (Nairn Dunbar) all carded six-under-par 66s. Despite a bad weather forecast the fixture was played in excellent overhead conditions apart from a mere shower in the afternoon.
Cameron had no bogeys in his round. However, Campbell, professional at the host course, opened with three birdies then carded successive 6s at the fourth and fifth. Eight birdies and a closing eagle was his final tally.
Kevin Williamson from Torvean, playing off 5 and partnering off Campbell, also had a 6 at the fourth, which had him at one over before he joined his partner in the sub par spree, finishing one behind the the trio but having the consolation of winning the low handicap section with a net 62.
