CRAIG MATHESON HAS A £1,331 PAYDAY AT CAWDER PRO-AM

Not easy to beat PGA EuroPro Tour player Chris Kelly over his home course at Cawder Golf Club near Glasgow, but former PGA Cup player Craig Matheson (Falkirk Tryst) managed it today in the club's pro-am and was rewarded with a £1,331 payday.
Matheson pipped Kelly, Paul McKechnie (Braid Hills), Graham Fox (Rowallan Castle) and Iain Colquhoun (Dundonald Links) by one shot with a round of five-under-par 65 that was almost bogey-free ... he dropped a shot par at the 18th.
Earlier Matheson had split his bag of six birdies into a couple of hat-tricks - the fifth, sixth and seventh, then the 11th, 12th and 13th.
The team event was won by Edinburgh pro Mark Kerr and his amateur trio of Kenny Johnston (5), Bruce MacKinnon (13) and Richard Byrne (8).
The tournament marked the return for the summer for the umpteenth year of Kenny Walker, a former Tartan Tour stalwart who is based at Castle Park Golf Club, Thailand.
