ST ANDREWS AMATEUR MATCH-PLAY


NO SCOTS LEFT ON LAST DAY 

AT EDEN TOURNAMENT

Hopes of a first Scottish triumph in the Eden Tournament at St Andrews for the first time since it
was won by a Downfield, Dundee player in 2004, were snuffed out on the penultimate day.
Only one Scot, Jackson Berry (Torwoodlee) reached the quarter-finals and he was beaten 3 and 2 by Adam Stone (Lancaster).
Neither have any Scots reached the last four of the handicap competition for the Eden Tankard.
The last survivor, Gary Porteous (Kilspindie) lost 6 and 5 to Irishman Jim Hary in the quarter-finals.
