The Ayrshire Matchplay Championship Trophy is destined for Troon Welbeck this year after the Troon clubs two remaining representatives in the 2007 Championship both won their semi final matches at Irvine (Bogside) on Wednesday 9th May.
In the first semi final, Stephen Murray - pictured right - faced the Ayrshire Boys and Ayrshire Strokeplay champion John Shanks (Irvine), but despite his opponent playing over his home course, Murray produced a notable win by 2 & 1 to book a place in Thursdays final.
In the second semi final, Ross Milligan - pictured below - , the conqueror of defending
champion Tommy McInally (Loudoun) on Tuesday night had an electrifying, and ultimately decisive, start against former Boys Champion Jamie Mackay (Kilmarnock Barassie), with three successive birdies at the opening holes giving Milligan a two hole lead.
Mackay fought back to square the match at the 16th, but Milligan ensured an all Welbeck final by taking the 17th and 18th for a two hole victory.
Murray and Milligan face each other in the final at 5.00 p.m. on Thursday 10th May over the Irvine (Bogside) course.
