McKechnie and McBain equal Portpatrick
Dunskey pro record of 63 in victory tie
By COLIN FARQUHARSON
Paul McKechnie (Braid Hills) and Newmachar's Greg McBain earned £1,117 each for sharing first place in the PGA in Scotland's Portpatrick Dunskey Charity pro-am today.
Remarkably, on a day when conditions were far from ideal forlow scoring - windy and chilly - both equalled the professional course record of seven-under-par 63s but by different routes.
McKechnie had an eagle 2 at the 13th and birdies at the fifth, sixth, seventh, eighth and 16th in a bogey-free round (31-32) of quality.
McBain was also flawless and had seven birdies - at the first, second, third, sixth, ninth, 10th and 17th in halves of 30-33.
Home course pro Christopher Robinson finished in third place, breathing down their necks with a 64, which was also bogey-free in halves of 64-60. He earned £745.
Greig Hutcheon (PLGC Inchmarlo) finished fourth with a 66 which included an eagle 2 at the 10th and birdies at the 13th, 17th and 18th in an inward half of 30, the best of the day. He earned £558.
Michael Patterson (Kilmacolm), who had an individual round of 71 led the Stranraer Golf Club team to victory with a 19-under-par team score of 121.
The amateurs were: Willie Slone (handicap 3), Steve Magee (18), Dougie Comptom (7).
+Note: Last surname is Comptom.
