NORTHERN COUNTIES CUP FIRST-DAY RESULTS AT LOSSIEMOUTH


Newmachar's Mark McKechnie, Chris Simpson, John Duff (pictured left) and Richard Barr began their defence of the Northern Counties Cup, in the 100th staging of the inter-club double foursomes match-play tournament, by thrashing Orkney 2 by 16 holes over the Moray Golf Club's Old Course links at Lossiemouth..
They will surely face a stiffer test on Friday morning against Royal Aberdeen 1 although they were extended to achieve a two-hole winning margin over the Newmachar 2 team.
Murcar Links looked impressive in a four-hole victory over Nairn 1.
