BYRNE DROPS TO WORLD NO 20

By COLIN FARQUHARSON
James Byrne (Banchory) has dropped four places to No 20 in this week's revision of the R and A World Amateur Golf Rankings.
Byrne is not now the leading British or Irish player in the rankings. That honour goes to Irishman Paul Cutler who has gone up one place to No 19.
Scottish champion Michael Stewart (Troon Welbeck) goes up two places to No 67 and the only other Scot in the top 100, Ross Kellett (Colville Park) rises four spots to No 75.
