PAY-AND-PLAY TRIP TO AUSTRALIA
BY SCOTT BORROWMAN
By COLIN FARQUHARSON
Dollar's Scott Borrowman, a Palmer Cup player while a student, Scottish youths champion in 2007 and South-east District title-winner in 2008, is in Australia, about to start a self-funded and testing competitive schedule of six tournaments, almost in succession.
Borrowman, pictured in action by Cal Carson Golf Agency, tees off in the Avondale Medal over 54 holes at Avondale Golf Club, New South Wales on Friday and Saturday this week.
Then he will compete in the Australia Cup at Australian Golf Club on January 17.
From there he moves on to the Lake Macquarie international amateur championship at Belmont Golf Club (January 21-24), the New South Wales Medal at Newcastle and Muree golf clubs (January 26-28), The Lakes Medal at The Lakes Golf Club (January 31), finishing up with the New South Wales Amateur match-play championship at Royal Sydney Golf Club from February 1 to 4.
He has to do well in the New South Wales Medal to figure among the leading 32 players who will go forward to the match-play stages the following week.
The English Golf Union are sending Walker Cup players Tommy Fleetwood (Formby Hall), last year's Scottish open amateur stroke-play winner at Murcar Links, and Matt Haines (Rochester & Cobham) to play roughly the same schedule.
