TURRIFF PRO-AM


CHRIS DOAK WINS WITH A 63 - BUT
IS IT A NEW PRO COURSE RECORD?

Was it a new professional record for Turriff? Well, nobody seemed to be sure one way or another after former Northern Open champion Chris Doak, meantime unattached, returned a seven-under-par score of 63 to win the Turriff pro-am and the £969 first prize by two strokes today.
Doak, pictured right, had eight birdies and one bogey, at the seventh, in halves of 32 (four under par) and 31 (three under). His birdies came at the first, second, third, sixth, ninth, 10th, 14th and 15.
Joint runners-up were Chris Kelly (Cawder) and Colin Gillies (Cawder) on 65 with Peterculter’s Greig Hucheon fourth on 66.
Norman Huguet (Royal Musselburgh) led the Balgownie Ltd trio of single-figure handicap amateurs – Mike Singer 96), Jim Chalmers (5) and Ian Singer (8) – to victory in the team event with a best two from three net total of 120.
