MIDLAND GOLFERS ALLIANCE REARRANGED FIXTURE

WHEN THE GOING GETS TOUGH, GARY 

GETS GOING ... WINNER AT CHARLETON

Edzell's +2 rated amateur Gary Tough, one of the most consistent performers at Midland Golfers' Alliance fixtures, won the top scratch prize at Charleton golf course, Colinsburgh, Fife today in a rearranged competition which was postponed last week because of bad weather.

In testing conditions, Tough returned a two-over-par 74 to win by two strokes.

He was joint winner at Fairmont St Andrews on November 5, and joint runner-up at Leven on November 11.

There was a tie for first handicap between Steven Paterson (Lundin) (4) and Dennis Redford (Murrayshall) (11), both scoring net 72s.
