PROLIFIC winner John Kernaghan was back in first place again last Saturday in the latest round of the Winter League at Kingarth. The 12-handicapper survived a late challenge from scratch player Graham Bolton to win by one point with a tally of 40 in the stableford competition. After a disappointing one-over-par 35 to the turn Bolton scored four birdies in an inward half of 30 for gross 65 and 39 points. Other leading scorers were Graham Connor (9), Cammy Middleton (9) and Ian McDougall (15) all on 37. The league, sponsored by Stephen Thomas Financial Services, continues tomorrow (Saturday) with the usual ballot at 8.30am.

MEMBERS and friends intending to attend the club's annual prizegiving dinner in St Blanes's Hotel, Kilchattan Bay on Saturday, December 1 should contact hon. secretary Frazer Robinson, 32 Marine Place, Rothesay (tel: 502158), as soon as possible.
