AIRLINE MANAGES TO LOSE NINE TOP 

 

SCOTS' CLUBS ON EVE OF EUROPEAN

Nine Scots were due to compete in this week's European men's individual amateur golf championship .. but it has all gone wrong for them.      

Most them flew out on Monday from Amsterdam but their golf clubs have gone astray in transit. Hence no practice rounds have been had by the Scots. 

The first round starts on Wednesday and the majority, according to one of the hapless Scots, Liam Johnston, have withdrawn altogether whereas others are borrowing clubs from other international players.

Obviously not an ideal arrangement by any manner but having gone to the expense of entering the competition, flying there, paying for accommodation, etc, any golf played will be a bonus. 

Being a full time amateur can be a dream existence for some ... but this has turned into a nightmare for them.
