GREIG'S BEST BUT IT MAY NOT BE A RECORD

HUTCH THINKS THAT COLIN GILLIES WON 

MORE THAN HIS NINE IN ONE SEASON

 Greig Hutcheon continues to dominate the PGA in Scotland season. His play-off win over Robert Arnott at Cawder yesterday was his ninth of the domestic season.

We asked "Hutch" (pictured right)  if that was a record, personal or Tartan Tour as a whole, and to look back on the exciting finish.

 
 "It certainly was a exciting finish with Robert Arnott and myself both getting in difficulties down the last hole of the 36-hole event," E-mailed the Paul Lawrie Golf Centre player. 

"Cawder's 18th has a huge drop in elevation plus a stiff breeze coming across the hole and at just under 200yds in length it made for a testy finish. 
"A huge thanks must go to Scott Bisset from Clyde Scaffolding Ltd for supporting a new event around two of Glasgow's great courses. Hayston GC was the Day 1 venue. 
"As for my ninth win being a record I'm not sure about that. I am pretty certain that Colin Ghilles was winning more than that in a season a while back."

Editor's Note: We've sent a note to Colin Gillies (pictured right), asking him if he can remember how many wins he had in one season when he was a his peak.
Colin has since replied and says he never won nine 
Tartan Tour events in a season but he thinks that the late Adam Hunter would have won more than nine in a season at his peak.
We have now asked for the PGA Scotland HQ at Gleneagles to consult their records and see if they can settle it.
