The Ayrshire A and Youths team remain undefeated after
completion of the second series of matches in the 2025 West of Scotland Inter County Leagues on Sunday the 28th of September.
The A team were away to Glasgow at Pollok Golf Club and a
very tight match ended with honours shared in a 4 – 4 draw.
Despite losing the two lead ties, Ayrshire fought back and
wins from Alan McLean and Harvey Broadfoot by 7&5 and 4&3 squared the
match before Craig telfer in the anchor tie put Ayrshire ahead. The draw was
assured when Blair Morton won his tie on the final green and indeed Ayrshire
were unlucky not to shade a win in the match with the other two ties being lost
on the final green.
