JUNIOR TOUR WINNER JAMIE SAVAGE NOT AT HIS SUNDAY BEST

It was a tournament of two halves for Jamie Savage (Cawder), winner of the weekend's 72-hole Scottish Hydro Junior Tour event at Roxburghe Hotel and golf course, near Kelso.

Over Saturday's 36 holes, Jamie played like a chip off the old block - his father Stewart is the Dalmuir professional - to shoot nine shots clear of the field of all the top Under-18 names in Scottish boys golf with brillianT rounds of 68 and 66 for a 10-under-par tally of 134.

But Sunday's 36 holes cost young Savage (pictured by Tom Ward Photography) 147 shots and in the end he did not so much cruise to victory as paddle furiously to cross the finishing line a couple of shots ahead of the fast finishing Greig Marchbank (Dumfries and Co) who had rounds of 72-72-71-68 for 283.

Alasdair McDougall (Elderslie finished third on 288 while the fourth-placed Anthony Blaney (Liberton) included in his 291 the round of the tournament, an eight-under-par 64 in the third round.

Golf Data Lab Scottish youths title-winner Ewan Scott (St Andrews) finished a creditable fifth on 292.
Paul Lawrie Foundation Scottish boys match-play champion Craig Howie (Peebles) retired after completing rounds of 72-76-82.
