Bute Golf Club

A BIG field is expected to do battle for The Burnside Bowl in Bute Golf Club’s senior open tournament next Wednesday at Kingarth.

The event, which was won last year by Rothesay’s Andrew Fulton, is again being sponsored by the club’s honorary captain, Jimmy Burnside. The player with the lowest net score will win the trophy and a £60 voucher while the scratch winner will receive a £40 voucher. There are also voucher prizes in two classes – age 50-60 and 61-and-over – with an additional prize for the best net score by a player aged 65 or over. The tournament has a handicap limit of 24. Competitors should report to the starter between 7.30am and 2.00pm on the day. There is an entry fee of £5 with £1 sweep optional.

JOHN KERNNAGHAN was top scorer in the July medal last Saturday with an impressive gross 74 for net 61. The 13-handicapper led the second class by three shots with Bobby Gordon (22) runner up on 64 and Gordon Little (16) third with 65. The first class winner was David Bryden (9) on 66. The other leading scorers were David Cameron (5) 69 and George Cuthbertson (11) 71. The competition scratch score was 63.

KINGARTH golfers are back in competitive action tomorrow (Saturday) when they entertain Rothesay in the annual social match. Players should be at the clubhouse for a 12 noon tee-off.
