Double bogeys cost Jimmy Gunn

a fistful of dollars in Arizona


Two double bogeys in his final round cost Dornoch exile Jimmy Gunn a fistful of dollars at this week's Gateway Tour's Desert Winter Series event at Palm Valley Golf Club, Palms in Arizona.
Gunn, pictured by Robin Wilson, had scores of 70, 66 and 76 for a four-under-par total of 212, which gave him joint 40th place and a pay cheque for $1,037.
He birdied the first, sixth and long 14th but double bogeyed the long ninth and short 16th, dropping other shots with boeys at the seventh, 10th and short 12th.
American Nathan Taylor won the first prize of $18,500 with scores of 65, 64 and 67 for 20-under-par 196.
