CURRIE, RONALD, McCREADIE SHARE PORTLETHEN WIN ON 68 (-4)

Caldwell's Christopher Currie, Craig Ronald (Carluke) and Jason McCreadie (Buchanan Castle) tied for first place with four-under-par 68s in today's
Portlethen pro-am.
On a miserably wet day, McCreadie won for the third time this season, Currie for the second and it was a seasonal first for Ronald, each of whom earned £766.
They finished one shot ahead of fourth-placed James McGhee (Duddingston) who earned £431 with a 69.
Currie had a bogey-free round, packing his four birdies into an outward half of 32 at the long second, third, long fourth and ninth.
Ronald had an eagle 3 at the long fourth and birdies at the long second, short fifth, 15th and 16th but bogeys at the short eighth and particularly the long 18th cost him outright victory.
McCreadie had birdies at the long second, third, long fourth, long 13th and long 18th. His only bogey came at the 17th.
There was a tight finish to the pro-am team event with two teams recording 13-under-par 58s.
A card countback gave victory with the better inward half to the Grant Considine Partnership team of Rowallan Castle pro Graham Fox - Ian Will (handicap 18), Robert Neil (18), Alasdair Considine (10).
They pipped the Belmar Engineering team, piloted by Scott Henderson (Kings Links), of Calum Mitchell, Derek Forbes and Kevin Wood on the countback.
