SCOTS UNDER--16S WIN TITLE AT HILTON TEMPLEPATRICK
Scotland won the Under-16 boys title by smashing hosts Ireland’s 100 per cent record on the final day of the Four Nations Development Quadrangular golf matches at Hilton Templepatrick Golf Club, near Belfast on Saturday.
Second place looked to be the best the young Scots could achieve after beating Wales 8-4 but losing unexpectedly to the Netherlands 7-5 while Ireland beat Wales 8 ½-3 ½ and the Netherlands 9 ½ -2 ½.
But the Scots produced a five-star display in the closing singles after drawing the morning foursomes 2-2 against Ireland.
Scotland took the singles 6 ½-1 ½ with wins by Bearsden’s Ewen Ferguson and Cameron Kirkwood, Bob McIntyre (Glencruitten), Williamwood’s George Burns and Fraser Davren, Innes Ferguson (Drumpellier) and Alasdair McDougall (St Andrews New)
McDougall was the MVP (most successful player) in the tournament as a whole with five wins out of six.
Scotland and Ireland finished with identical records – two wins and one defeat with goal difference each of 21 ½-14 ½.
The tie-breaker was the result between the two teams which made it a double whammy of a Saturday triumph for the Scots.

Day 1 – Scotland 8, Wales 4; Ireland 9 ½, Netherlands 2 ½
