Pushed to the wire but Alex Simpson proved today what a fighter he is. 3 down with 4 to play after losing 12 to an eagle and 14 to a birdie he battled back won 15 and 16, halved 17 and with a superb birdie on 18 squared his match. Brad Bannerman won 4&3 and Kirsty Brodie won 4&2. This makes us 5 from 5 and we now only have an away match at Blairgowrie to complete our section and are virtually guaranteed to finish top qualifier and look forward to the semi final with confidence.
Also made Scottish Golf View / Kirkwood news pages !!!
To cap of a great weekend Brad has been called up to play for Perth & Kinross in the Scottish Area team championship at Tulliallan this coming weekend. With Alex already selected Strathmore will be providing 50% of the team - another first.
Between Alex's 2 scratch league matches this weekend we managed to play our first doubles match as partners, gelled well and won 3&2.
