Scotland's Kellett and Law finish 13th

in Argentina team tournament

Scotland, represented by David Law (Hazlehead) and Ross Kellett (Colville Park), finished 13th of the 19 countries competing in the Juan Carlos Tailhade international team amateur golf tournament at Los Lagartos Country Club, Buenos Aires, Argentina.

South Africa's J G Classen and Ryan Dreyer, pictured, won with a combined 72-hole total of nine-under-par 567, three shots ahead of Argentina's Armando Zarlenga and Tomas Cocha.

Law and Kellett totalled 589 with Ross 73, 73, 75 and 69 for two-over 290 and David 77, 73, 75 and 74 for 11-over 299.

England's Tommy Fleetwood (Formby Hall) and Eddie Pepperell (Drayton Park), both 18-year-olds, were leading the tournament when they were disqualified in the third round for not following the correct procedure for cleaning their golf balls during play in the muddy conditions which prevailed after the course was flooded by torrential rain which held up Friday's second round.

Law and Kellett will be joined this week by Banchory's James Byrne, a student at Arizona State University, and Troon's Michael Stewart (East Tennessee State University) for the Argentina international amateur championship at Buenos Aires Golf Club.
