Ian Brotherston leads Carnegie Shield
qualifiers at Royal Dornoch
By ROBIN WILSON
With a 147 total former Scottish internationalist of twenty-five years ago, Ian Brotherston of Dumfries and County shot five more than his opening 71 over a windy Royal Dornoch yesterday but still led the 32 qualifiers into today's first match-play round of the Carnegie Shield competition.
Brotherston, who last year was beaten at the semi final stage by Ian Rennie (Hindhead), took the number one seeding by a stroke from Andrew Biggadike on 148 (74/74). Biggadike, from Olympic Club, San Francisco, became the first American to win the Silver Medal, confined to club members in the qualifying rounds.
Inverness's Bruce Thomson has the third seeded place after a second round 77 and fourth is Rennie, loser of two previous finals. Local holder Chris Mailley beat the qualifying cut off by two shots after a second round 83 and from the three players on the 161 deadline two won through after a three hole play-off, local Craig Sutherland and Gregory Lynn (Bathgate). Sutherland's club mate Peter Lee lost out. Biggadike, Mailley and Gary Bethune (RDGC) are the three former winners in the first round draw.
