Gregg Brown wins West of Scotland

 

title at East Kilbride

 

Gregg Brown of Cathkin Braes is the new West of Scotland Champion for 2019. Gregg shot 72-74 for 146 to pip Paul Gault of Haggs Castle and Brendan McKenna of Pollok by virtue of a countback. The bad weather forecast had obviously deterred a few competitors from turning up at a wet blustery East Kilbride Golf Course but 38 players did brave the elements. The players to a man praised the excellent condition of the course.

First round leader Brendan McKenna of Pollok led the way with an excellent first round of 69 but rued a three-putt at the 36^th hole which demoted him from 1^st to 3^rd.
