FOURTH WIN OF SEASON FOR CALDWELL TOUR PRO
CURRIE'S OUTWARD 30 SETS UP
VICTORY IN HAYSTON PRO-AM
Caldwell tour pro Christopher Currie chalked up his fourth of the season on the Tartan Tour with a five-under-par 65 in today's Hayston Charity pro-am at the Kirkintilloch club..
Currie, pictured left, a winner in pro-ams at Bathgate, Kirkhill and Cardross earlier in the year, laid the fouundation for his victory in a field of 44 professionals, with an excellent outward half of six-under-par 30. The only holes he did not birdie before the turn were the third and eighth.
The sparkle disappeared with bogeys at the 10th and 15th before Currie served it hot again with an eagle 3 at the long 16th, which gave him enough in hand to be able to bogey the 17th and still win the £1,260 first prize by one shot.
Joint runners-up on 66 were the Clydeway Golf pair of Paul O'Hara and Graham Fox, Edinburgh Golf Centre's Craig Gordon and Greig Hutcheon (Paul Lawrie Golf Centre). They earned £696 each.
Fox led the Porcelain Plus 2 team of amateurs to victory in the pro-am event with a net total of 18-under-par 52. The amateurs were Alan Cross (handicap 6), Steven Brogan (9) and Robert Mearns (6).
