GREAT SCOTT! HENDERSON WINS AGAIN

Scott Henderson, the Tartan Tour's man in form, scored his fourth win in 11 days and his third since Sunday when he included an outward half of 29 on his way to heading the pro field with a five-under-par 63 in the Duff House Royal pro-am today at the Banff course. Henderson, a former European Tour Rookie of the Year, won at Kemnay on June 9, Edzell on June 17, Spey Valley on June 19 and now Duff House Royal. The Kings Links Tour pro birdied the third, fifth, short sixth, eighth and short ninth to turn in five under par. He cooled off after that with a first and only bogey at the short 11th and only one birdie on the inward half, at the 18th in 34 home. He won the top prize of £1,270 by two shots from unattached Englishman Jonathan Lomas who had a bogey-free 65 with birdies at the first, long 12th and 14th to earn £1,015. Sharing third place on 66 were the almost inseparable Greig Hutcheon (Banchory) and Stephen Gray (Hayston), as well as Gareth Hardy (Belleisle). They each earned £596. Patrick Walker (Ballumbie Castle) led the "Celebrations of Turriff" trio of Barrie Evans (handicap 18), Glenn Jax (7) nd Malcolm McAuslin (14) to victory in the pro-am team event with a net two-ball aggregate of 15-under-par 121.  Leading pro scores Par 68 63 Scott Henderson (Kings Links) £1,270 65 Jonathan Lomas (unatt) £1,015 66 Greig Hutcheon (Banchory), Stephen Gray (Hayston), Gareth Hardy (Belleisle) £596 each. 68 Nathan Keast (Renaissance), Michael Patterson (Kilmacolm), Paul McKechnie (Braid Hills), Christopher Currie (Caldwell) £308 each. 69 Greg McBain (Gamola Golf), James McGhee (Duddingfston), Patrick Walker (Ballumbie Castle), Alan Tait (Marriott Dalmahoy) £187 each. 70 Graham Fox (Rowallan Castle) £152 71 Ross Cameron (Saltire Energy), Graeme Brown (Montrose Links), Ross Dixon (Renaissance), Andrew Fullen (Largs) £120 each. 72 Gary Lochhead (Kings Links), Steven Duncan (Carnoustie GL), Norman Huguet (Musselburgh) £55 each 73 Stuart Reekie (Blairgowrie), Craig Knowles (Panmure) 74 Lee Vannet (Carnoustie GL), Mark King (Kingsfield), James Calam (Myrus GR), Ross McConnachie (Peterculter), Craig Matheson (Falkirk Tryst) 75 Sandy Aird jun (McDonald Ellon), Iain Donaldson (Meldrum House), Paul Brookes (Pitreavie), Joel Hopwood (Royal Aberdeen) 76 Gary Holland (Duff House Royal) 77 Neil Colquhoun (Merchants of Edinburgh) 79 Scott Clelland (North Lanarkshire Leisure), Craig Goodwin (Duff House Royal). ends
