survivors in Spanish championship
England's Walker Cup players, Matthew Haines (Rochester & Cobham), pictured by Cal Carson Golf Agency, and Tommy Fleetwood (Formby Hall), winner of the Scottish open amateur stroke-play championship at Murcar Links last year, are the only two British players in the last eight of the Spanish men's amateur international championship at La Canada Golf Club on the Costa del Sol.
Fraserburgh's Kris Nicol, the No 3 qualifier, won his first tie by 2 and 1 over Adam Carson (England) but lost to Spain's No 19 qualifier, Sebastian Garcia, by two holes in the round of the last 16.
Gordon Yates, Scotland's only other representative among the 32 qualifiers for the match-play stages, was the No 6 seed. He lost to the 27th qualifier, R Lykke-Kjeldsen (Denmark) by one hole.
