AYRSHIRE SENIORS CHAMPIONSHIP - Young takes trophy back to Irvine

Following on from the 2008 winner Ronnie Potts (Irvine Ravenspark), Ronnie Young (Irvine G.C.) - pictured below receiving the trophy from Sandy Provan - won the 2009 Ayrshire Seniors Championship at a wet Kilmarnock (Barassie) Golf Club on Tuesday 21st July.

50 hardy souls braved the wet conditions but were rewarded with a course in outstanding condition to contest the Sandy Provan Trophy, awarded to the player returning the best nett score.

Despite the weather conditions there were some very good scores posted, resulting in the CSS remaining unchanged at 72.

Young set the early target, which proved to be unbeatable on the day, when he returned a superb 86 - 19 = 67 which ultimately won the trophy by a clear 3 shots.

Best scratch score of the day was recorded by John Campbell (West Kilbride) who returned a score of 78 to edge out David Tierney (Ayr Belleisle) by virtue of the better inward half.
