Graham Fox wins Bishopbriggs pro-am with 

record 63 after 64s by Hay, Forsyth

By COLIN FARQUHARSON
It was a "record day" at the Bishopbriggs Golf Club pro-am today!
First Gavin Hay (Grantown on Spey) posted a new course record of seven-under-par 64 with the help of eight birdies and one bogey and was joined very shortly in the lead by Alastair Forysth (Mearns Castle) who had a bogey-free, seven-birdie 64.
But before the paint was dry on the new record mark, in came man in form Graham Fox (Clydeway Golf), beaten in a play-off for the P and H Championship last week, lowered the record again ... to eight-under 63.
Fox, who earned £1,416 for his great round, had bogey-free halves of 32 and 31 with the birdies coming in sequences - sixth, seventh, eighth, ninth, 10th  and at the end of the round birdies at the 16th, 17th and 18th.
Hay and Forsyth pocketed £991 each.
Last year's Scottish professional champion Chris Kelly (unattached) led the amateur team of Thomas Murray (handicap 12), Vince Echline (20) and Gavin Cunningham (11) to victory in the pro-am team competition with a 17-under-par net score of 54.
