Ayrshire stroke-play champion, Stuart Robin (Prestwick St Nicholas)
Stuart Robin (Prestwick St Nicholas) won the Ayrshire stroke-play championship at a windy Prestwick Golf Club on Sunday.
He edged out defending champion David Wilson (Troon Welbeck) by a single shot to become the first St Nicholas member to win the title since Gavin Lawrie in 1996.
The players had to contend with strong winds veering from south west to north west, and heavy rain showers, throughout the day.
Michael Smyth (Royal Troon) led the field after the morning round with an outstanding four-under-par 67.
At that point Smyth led by four from Wilson and Ewan McKinnon (Corrie) on par 71 with George Robertson (Irvine Ravenspark), John Haggarty (Loudoun) and the eventual winner, Stuart Robin, one further back on 72.
In the afternoon, Robin returned a second successive 72 for a two over par total of 144 finished a shot ahead of Wilson who followed up his 71 with a three-over 74 for 145.
Third place went to Craig Hamilton (Ballochmyle) on 147 with rounds of 73 and 74.
Smyth faded badly in the testing afternoon conditions. He carded a 10 over par 81 for a total of 148 and fourth place overall.
Host club member James Bunch (Prestwick) took fifth place on 150 (78 72), while sixth place was shared by Loudoun duo Steven McEwan (77-74) and Tommy McInally (76-75) alongside Ewan McKinnon of Corrie (71-80).
