AYRSHIRE CLUB CHAMPIONSHIP - Course record for Stamper as Girvan take the title

 Girvan Golf Club are the 2012 Ayrshire Club Champions. 15 locla clubs contested the championship which took place at a breezy Irvine Golf Club on Sunday 15th July.

The winning Girvan team :- (L - R)
Gary Bryden, Steven Stamper, Stuart White
Girvan eventually secured the title by two strokes, from former winners Irvine Ravenspark, thanks in no small part to a superb two under par score of 69 which was confirmed by club officials as the course record for the recently extended championship (blue) course at the Bogside links.

Three successive threes at the closing holes of the outward nine saw Stamper turn in 34, two under par. A bogey five at the tenth was immediately followed by a birdie three at the eleventh and a further bogey five at the fifteenth was countered by a birdie three at the seventeenth to bring Stamper home in level par 35 for his record score of 69.

Steven Stamper
with his record score card
Gary Bryden added a 77 for a team total of 146 with Stuart White's 79 being discarded but providing a useful back up score in the event of a tie.

None of the remaining teams on the coursecould challenge Girvan's total however as the South Ayrshire club took custody of the R.L Crawford Trophy for 2012 and the title of Ayrshire Club Champions

Girvan will now become Ayrshire's nominated club to go forward and contest the Scottish Club Championship at Arbroath on 30th September.

At the conclusion of play, Ayrshire Golf Association President David Miller presented prizes to the winning team.
