Sandy Walker (Ardeer) is into the semi finals of the 2014 Ayrshire Champion Of Champions Trophy competition by virtue of a walkover against Frank Murdoch (Brunston Castle).
Murdoch intimated his non availability for the semi final date in August due to a previous commitment and, having played his way through to the quarter finals, there was no alternative but to put Walker through.
This is the second successive year that the latter stages of the competition has featured a walkover in similar circumstances, despite all competitors being asked to note the fixed semi finals and final dates at the start of the event, and intimate withdrawal at an early stage if not available, or alternatively arrange a replacement prior to the commencement of the competition.
In matches played recently, Kenny Macaskill (Turnberry Staff) had a 4 & 3 home win over Craig Robertson (Abbotsford) to reach the quarter finals, where he will be away from home against either Malcolm Pennycott (Whiting bay) or Gordon Boyle (Turnberry).
Also through to the last eight is Adam Sweeney (Largs Routenburn) who had a 2 & 1 win over local rival Iain MacDonald (Largs) to set up a home tie in the quarter finals against either Craig Hamilton (Ballochmyle) or Craig Young (Loudoun).
All remaining third round matches are due for completion by 22nd June.
Outstanding results from the third round are :-
Malcolm Pennycott (Whiting Bay) Vs Gordon Boyle (Turnberry)
Craig Hamilton (Ballochmyle) Vs Craig Young (Loudoun)
Gordon McKelvie (Royal Troon) Vs. Gary Bryden (Girvan)
Martin Riddall (New Cumnock) Vs Iain Girvan (Muirkirk)
