Hot stuff in California as Booth finishes four under par

WALLACE’S 12 BIRDIES ONLY GET
HIM A PLACE IN TOP 20 IN USA


Wallace Booth from Comrie, Perthshire, a final-year student at Augusta State University, shot 12 birdies over the three rounds to finish 18th in a field of 88 players for the Corde Valle Collegiate tournament at San Martin, California.
Booth had scores of 72, 70 and 70, with four birdies in each round, for a four-under-par total of 212 over a long course of 7,119yd and a par of 72.
To make the top 20 was quite an achievement for the Scottish youths champion of 2004 because the scoring was exceptionally good.
The joitn winners, Rob Gruber and Zack Miller, both Stanford University students, shot 14-under-par 202. Miller set a course-record 63 in his second round.
Stanford, not surprisingly, won the team event by 14 shots with a 42-under-par total of 822. Augusta State (865) came ninth of the 17 colleges participating.
LEADING INDIVIDUALS
202 Rob Gruber (Stanford) 69 68 65, Zack Miller (Stanford) 72 63 67.
