Banchory's Greig Hutcheon won the Gleneagles Scottish PGA championship for a second time today - some 14 years after his first win when he was based at Bristol.
In a remarkable last-day turnaround over the par-71 King's Course at the Perthshire golf resort, Hutcheon made up four shots on overnight leader Gareth Wright (West Linton) with a five-under-par 66 for a total of 17-under-par 267 to win the £9,000 first prize.
Wright failed to break 70 for the first time over the four days and a par 71 for a total of 268 relegated him to second place and a £6,500 cheque.
The two men finished well clear of third-placed Jason McCreadie (Buchanan Castle) who had made the running over the first two rounds. McCreadie signed off with a 70 for 273 and a payslip for £4,500.
Welshman Wright's four-stroke advantage disappeared over the first three holes with a bogey (three putts), double bogey, par start compared with Hutcheon's par-par-birdie for the same holes.
