DANIEL SIM SCORES FIRST MEN'S OPEN 

 

VICTORY WITH A 68 AT CRAIBSTONE

Royal Aberdeen's Daniel Sim, 19, has achieved his first victory in a men's open tournament at Craibstone Golf Club where his father Billy is the general manager.

Westhill-based three-handicapper Daniel shot a creditable one-under-par 68 in difficult conditions to head a field of 90. Highlight of his card was an eagle 2 at the par-4 14th. He also had three birdies but double-bogeyed the 11th and also dropped shots at the first and 18th.

The handicap trophy was won by Craibstone member Jacques Stephen with a net 63 off 10.
