Glencruitten's Robert MacIntyre kept the Golf Data Lab Scottish youths golf championship at home last year but it looks like being tough to prevent the Under-21s title being "exported" at the end of this year's tournament which teed off with a big field over the Jubilee Course at St Andrews today (Monday).

Glencruitten's Robert MacIntyre kept the Golf Data Lab Scottish youths golf championship at home last year but it looks like being tough to prevent the Under-21s title being "exported" at the end of this year's tournament which teed off with a big field over the Jubilee Course at St Andrews today (Monday).
Lee Shepherd (Sherwood Forest) has set a cracking pace over a course that many rate the best and most difficult of all the St Andrews Links Trust lay-outs.
He shot a three-under-par 69 to lead by a shot from Paul Reilly (Kilmacolm), the lone Scot in the leading five, and Englishmen Nick Marsh (Huddersfield), Christopher Kendall (Royal Lytham and Germany-based Philip Coles.
Title-holder McIntyre is in lying joint sixth place on 71 alongside Ben Kinsley (St Andrews), Lewis Bain (Turnhouse) Ewan Farquharson (Auchterarder), William Aldred (Brockett Hall) and Kyle McClatchie from South Africa.
