Perth player Daniel Young (Craigie Hill) retained the Cameron Corbett Vase - the latest SGU 72-hole Order of Merit event - at
Haggs Castle Golf Club this evening in an exciting finish.
Young, who won the prestigious trophy in a tournament reduced to 36 holes last year because of flooding, showed this time round that he had the class and the nerve to make most of the running over four rounds.
Joint overnight leader after Saturday rounds of 71 and 66, Young went three shots clear of the field on his own with a third-round 68 for 11-under-par 205.
His nearest rival was James White (Lundin) who had scored 72-68-68 for 208.
Young, playing two groups behind White, appeared to be cruising to a repeat victory until White staged a grandstand finish with birdies at the 17th and 18th for a three-under-par 69 which enabled him to post a clubhouse target of 11-under 277.
Young, 21, winner also of the Leven Gold Medal last August, stood on the 18th tee knowing he needed a birdie to win by one shot, a par to figure in a play-off against White.
Daniel kept cool under pressure and sank a tricky 2 1/2ft putt for a birdie and a round of one-under 71 for a winning total - by one stroke - of 12 under par 276.
Scott Crichton (Aberdour), like Young a former US college circuit player - Daniel completed four successful years at Lynn University, Boca Raton, Florida in May - finished third, having started the tournament with a 66 and closed it with a 72.
Crichton won the Cameron Corbett Vase - one of the oldest tournaments on the amateur golfing calendar - in 2011 but an outward half of three-over 39 in his final round meant he had just too much ground to make up over the closing holes.
Jamie Savage (Cawder), winner of last weekend's East of Scotland Open, achieved a top-10 finish with a share of fifth place on 285. A third-round 76 killed his winning chance after being only two shots off the pace at halfway.
