JAMES WHITE EQUALS LUNDIN LINKS RECORD WITH A 62

Scotland international James White equalled the course record of nine-under-par 62 in winning the Birkmyre Trophy open competition at Lundin Golf Club, Fife at the
weekend.

White, a member at the Lundin club,  had an eagle 3 at the long ninth and birdies at the third, fifth, seventh, eighth, 10th, 13th, 15th and 17th in halves of 31 (five under par) and 31 (four under).

But for a lone bogey at the fourth, White, son of a former Tartan Tour professional, would have set a new low mark.

A +3 player, White won the scratch trophy by three shots from Lundin clubmate Steven Meiklejohn with another local player, Stephen Rogerson, third on 69.
