Deeside Scratch League
Congratulations to the Gents Scratch team of Gary Watson, Paul Forbes, Martyn Aitken, Lee Buck and Tony Robertson who defeated Aboyne by 3 points to 2 in the Final of the Deeside Scratch League Knockout at Banchory last Sunday. Convincing wins from Tony Robertson and Martyn Aitken got the boys off to a good start but Aboyne fought back to level at 2-2 before Gary pulled through to ensure that the boys lifted the trophy and made up for their defeat in last year's final. Well done boys……great achievement!
Ross rounded off a fine season in his final event of the year up at Royal Dornoch. Ross and his team WON the Pro-Aam last Saturday with a tremendous score of 58 (12 under). The Pro-Am was then followed by a 36-hole event for Assistant Professionals. In the first round he recovered from being 5 over after 6 holes to score 75, leaving him in 20th position. On the second day he was 4 over at the turn but came home in 2 under par 33 to score 72 on a very difficult championship course to finish in a tie for 14th position in a field of 60 players.
Ross also passed his final exam last week, therefore he has now completed everything enabling him to apply for PGA membership and become a fully qualified pro.
