Scottish Disability Golf team named to play England at Cardrona next month

 

Golfers from Scottish Disability Golf have been selected to take on the “Auld Enemy” in September, at the Cardrona Resort and Hotel near Peebles for their Ryder Cup match.

The event will take place from Sunday, September 11 through to Wednesday, September 14 and will consist, much like the Ryder Cup, of foursome, four-ball and singles match-play competitions. 

Players, selected from the Scottish Order of Merit Championship Tables, and representing all disability categories, will travel from across the UK to compete for Team Scotland.

Team Captain, Alan Robertson from Stirling said, “Scotland will try to defend the title, after we won the Auld Enemies Cup at the Shire Golf club in London in 2014 by a good margin.  I have picked a good squad, so let's hope we can win it convincingly and send them homeward to think again!"

 

Team Scotland 2016 are: 

Alan Robertson of Stirling.   

Andy Gardiner of Fritwell.   

Kevin Harmison of Bedlington.   

John Irvine of Blyth.  

Jim Thomson of Millport.   

John Pennycott of The Isle of Arran.  

Derek Milne of Upper Largo.   

Jim Gales of Springfield.
