SCOTS BOYS FINISH BOTTOM OF THE TABLE IN FRANCE



Scotland's U18s boys' golf team finished last of four in the three-day quadrangular international at Golf International de Pont Royal, Provence in the south of France today.
The Scots, leading 2-1 after the foursomes in their final match against pointless Sweden, lost their momentum in the singles, taking only
1 1/2pt from the six ties to lose 5 1/2-3 1/2 overall.
Calum Hill (Tantallon) was Scotland's only Saturday singles winner. Euan Walker (Kilmarnock Barassie) got the half point but there were defeats for Bradley Neil (Blairgowrie), Connor Syme (Dumfries and County), Alan Waugh (Cowglen) and Williamwood's George Burns.
Italy beat France 6-3 to win the title with 3pt out of three. 
France (1 1/2pt) were second, Sweden (1pt) third and Scotland (1/2pt) fourth.
Scotland's most successful players over the three days were Bradley Neil and Euan Walker, both with 3 1/2pt out of a possible six.
Calum Hill was close behind with 3pt.
