August Medal


A tricky wind and showery conditions meant good scores were at a premium in the August Medal at Reay. The prize for Category One was bagged by Ian Ross with a fine round of 78 which gave him a nett score of 66. The highlight of an outward half of 40 was a birdie at the short 5th hole, and he played some steady golf for an inward 38 to claim the win by a comfortable two shot margin. Gregor Munro took the runners-up spot after carding a 73, the lowest gross score of the day, which gave him a nett 68. His halves of 36 and 37 included a solitary birdie at the 14th hole. Three players, Donald Mowat, Stuart Grieg and Alistair Gunn finished a stroke further back after carding nett 69s.

In Category Two, Billy Moore blew the competition away after his nett 70 was good enough to win by a margin of 8 strokes. Kenny Farmer and Jock Eunson shared second place after their rounds of nett 78.
