ALEX SIMPSON SELECTED TO PLAY FOR SCOTLAND

Spoke with Alex last night after he had completed his 2nd round and qualified tied 25th at the English under 14 Championship. He is disappointed about getting off to solid starts in both rounds and not finishing them as well but goes into todays final round buoyed up after being selected to play for Scotland in a match against France at Bothwell Castle this Saturday which is the venue next week for the Loretto Scottish under 14 Boys and Girls Open Championship so a good way to warm up for that. He is hoping to improve his position today and we wish him well when he tees off at 11.10 this morning.
