FIRST WIN OF SEASON FOR BISHOPBRIGGS RANGE PLAYER

FOX AND McGHEE TIE ON 65 AT 

BOTHWELL CASTLE

Graham Fox (Clydeway Golf) and James McGhee (Bishopbriggs Golf Range) tied with five-under-par 65s for victory in the Bothwell Castle pro-am today (Sunday).

Fox had seven birdies and two bogeys in achieving his second win of the season.

McGhee teed off with an eagle and added six birdies and three bogeys to win for the first time this year. His previous best finish this season was 10th.

They won £1,133 each.
Yesterday we highlighted Chris Kelly running up a 10 at one hole in the Montrose pro-am. Only fair to say today that Chris covered the last six holes in five under par with birdies at the 13th, 15th, 16th, 17th and 18th.
He had been one under par until his game clicked together again. Kelly finished joint third and earned £496.

Scott Clelland (Arabian Ranches) led the Taggarts team of Scott Brawly (handicap 14), Dominic Cameron (12) and John Miller (9) to victory in the pro-am event with a net score of 16-under-par 54. They won on a card countback from Graham Fox's team (Les Hutchison 2) who also totalled 54.
