WALKER' STRONG FINISH EARNS HIM JUST OVER £1,000 ON HOLIDAY TRIP

THREE TIE FOR BATHGATE PRO-AM 

VICTORY WITH SIX-UNDER 65s

Graham Fox (Clydeway Golf), Christopher Currie (Caldwell) and Kenny Walker (Castle Park) tied for victory on the six-under-par 65 mark at today's (Sat) £7,250 Bathgate Golf Club pro-am.

Fox had seven birdies and one bogey, Currie an eagle 3, five birdies and also one bogey, while Walker, on his usual summer golfing holiday back home from his Thailand base, birdied four in a row from the 14th to get in the mix.

They each won £1,073.
It was Currie's third win on the Tartan Tour this season but a first for Walker and, surprisingly, also a first for Fox, despite his big number of top 10 finishes.
Mark King (Kingsfield) led the Grange Building Services trio of Gary stephen (handicap 17), Bernard Mulherron (17) and BrianPugman (5) to victory in the pro-am team event with a net score of 57.
Two other teams, led by pros Jonathan Sharp and Chris McMaster, also finished on 14-under-par 57 but King's team had the best inward half.
King, playing for the first time in 10 days following a slipped disc, had a No Return due to a lost ball at one hole. He decided not to walk back to the tee and play another one.
But the Kingsfield man was able to continue as a team member to contribute to the score.
