HUTCHEON AND MCBAIN TIE AT ELGIN PRO-AM

North-east professionals dominated the leading placings in the S and D Harper Calor Gas shotgun pro-am at Elgin Golf Club today.
Banchory's Greig Hutcheon and Aberdeen's Greg McBain tied for first place on four-under-par 65 and Scott Henderson (Kings Links) finished fourth on 68.
The odd man in was David Orr (Mearns Castle) in  third place with a 67.
It was Hutcheon's ninth win of the season and boosts his top-of-the-money table earnings on the Tartan Tour to £29,973 this year.
McBain, who also shared the top spot in Thursday's Downfield pro-am, now has six wins to his credit in 2013. His Tartan Tour earnings in 20132 at £16,871.
Orr led the sponsors' No 4 team - Loftus Lock (handicap 15), Tommy Mann (18) and Sandy Adam (9) - to victory in the pro-am with a 12-under-par net score of 57.
There were six teams in all on the 57 mark and Orr's team won with the best last nine holes.
