IT'S THAT MAN HUTCHEON AGAIN - DEER PARK MASTERS WINNER
Gleneagles Scottish PGA champion Greig Hutcheon scored his fifth win of the season and boosted his earnings from the Tartan Tour alone close to the £22,800 mark by winning the Muir Deer Park Masters at the Livingston venue today.
The Banchory man is heading for a repeat of last season's Order of Merit and money table double whammy.
He came storming through to win today with a six-under-66, two better than than his first-day effort, for a 10 under par total of 134 to lift the £2,250 first prize.
Hutcheon swept to the front with an outward half of five-under--par 31 made up of birdies at the long second, fourth, short seventh, long eighth and ninth.
Coming home he birdied the long 12th and 15th but dropped a shot at the 13th. Over the 36 holes he had only two bogeys and 12 birdies.
Hutcheon won by a single shot from Chris Kelly (Cawder) who earned £1,640 for an aggregate of 135 (67-68).
Overnight leader Robert Arnott (Bishopbriggs) slumped from a leading 66 to an also-ran 74 for a total of 140 and a £426 financial reward, much less than he would have earned had he not had a double bogey 6 at the 11th and bogeys at the fourth and 17th.
Birdies at the 13th and 18th were too little too late.
