FOX AND GRAY SHARE DEESIDE

PRO-AM VICTORY WITH 64s


By COLIN FARQUHARSON
East Kilbride’s Graham Fox and Stephen Gray (Hayston) both shot six-under-par 64s to be joint winners of the individual pro section of the Deeside Golf Club pro-am today.
They earned £1,096 apiece in finishing three shots ahead of Paul Lawrie (Carrick at Cameron House), Scott Henderson (Kings Links) and Callum Nicoll (The Els Club).
Fox, who did not have a bogey on his card, had the best outward half of five-under-par 31, birdieing the first, third, fifth, eighth and ninth. The flow of birdies halted after the turn and Fox was able to add only one, at the 17th, for 33 home.
Gray had bogeys at the second and 16th but he was seven under par for the holes between, birdieing the third, fifth, sixth, eighth, ninth – 32 to the turn – 13th and 14th. He had his eighth birdie of the day at the 18th.
Two Deeside Golf Club teams tied with net 14-under-par 126 scores in the pro-am. Victory by virtue of having the better net inward half went to Paul McKechnie (Braid Hills) and his amateur trio of club captain Doug Watson (handicap 7), past club captain George Esson (15) and Fiona Reiss (9).
They pipped the team of Jamie Wilson (12), Keith Ingram (6) and Leigh Howarth (13) who had Craig Gordon (Edinburgh Golf Centre) as their pro.
